What Could A Puss Filled Lump On The Top Of Nose Indicate?

I ve got a lump on the top part of my nose by my left eye. Its not directly on my eye however it is on the side of my nose (top part). Its not a spot, its like a little lump. I have squeezed it and yellow puss was coming out, then dirty blood and it still remains the same. Can you please help me with this? Regards Hasan

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
This is a type if skin infection called as furrunculosis.
You can treat this by applying an ointment at bedtime called Neosporin Opthalmic/Skin ointment, which has more penetrarion capacity than Neosporin Skin Ointment alone.
Once this comes down, keep your face clean by using a good face wash. Wash your face twice daily. Your skin will remain healthy and slowly frequency of formation of such furruncles will come down.
