Red Bump On Tip Of Nose, Swelling, Tingling And Pain In Tooth. What Could This Be?

hi. A few days ago I had a red bump on the tip of my nose. I had been bricklaying and was around a lot of dust, I thought that my nose was infected so I popped what look to be a zit. The next day, my nose was swollen, and one of my lymphnodes on my neck was also swollen. My nose was also tingling, and very painful, my back teeth began to hurt. I woke up this morning and my nose was very swollen and the tip was covered in white blisters. I have no idea what is going on.

Hello, Thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
The type of bump you are mentioning that it is red, swollen and painful it means that there is some infection because of which it has occurred.
You should consult an ENT surgeon for the problem earliest as he will go for some investigations and X-ray which will confirm the diagnosis.
If the tooth is carious which is hurting then it can be periapical infection of the tooth also, if not than it can radiating pain of infection of nose.
So you should visit the ENT specialist earliest for the diagnosis.
Hope it will help you.
