Suggest Treatment For A Small Red Bumps On The Nose

I have a red spot on the end of my nose, the size of a dime or smaller, that I ve had for months. Some days it s worse than others. Some days little red dots appear on it and it looks slightly swollen. I went to my regular doctor for something completely unrelated and she told me to keep an eye on it. Any ideas on what it is?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have red bump on nose which seems to be due to clogging of skin pores by bacteria, sebum and dead materials. It could be due to allergic reaction as well. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to maintain cleaniness of area and apply exposure to sunlight by using sunscreen TANCARE rich in spf 26. You should apply topical antibacterial ointment mucopirn on it. Avoid touching or pricking it. Yoi should apply vitamin E oil at night. Take oral antibiotic course as well. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment after proper prescription.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
