Suggest Remedies For Soreness On The Bridge Of The Nose
I have a pressure sore across the bridge of my nose from my new cpap mask (of 3 months) and have tried several things to no avail. Have tried aloe, triple antibiotic cream, acne products, etc. I have seen several items online for pressure sores and wondering what might work. Please advise.

Hello,
It is due to superficial infection or inflammation.
As a first line management, you can apply topical antibiotics like Mupirocin for symptomatic relief.
Consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
