My nose peels and cracks at the front area and sometimes the sides. It seems like the mucous in my nose (if it runs) adds to problem. I experience a tenderness. sometimes i get a bump or button in my nose and in my ear that pains. It seems as if my nose is slowing melting and i'm concerned
Thank you for using "Ask a doctor" service to post your health concern.
I read it carefully and I understand your worry.
But from what you are describing I think you have rosacea. To confirm this, please kindly upload a photo so I can have a look at it. Once I confirm that I can advice you which local antibiotic to take to treat the problem.
I hope this is helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
