What Does A Vertical Red On Nose Indicate?
Hello, I woke up this morning with a vertical red line above my nose, in between my eyebrows. It has happened before, but this time the line is very visible, to the point of many of my coworkers asking me if I scratched myself. Any idea on what it may be? There is no itching nor any bumps, just a wide vertical red line. Thanks, Jenny

Hello,
It could be a pressure mark developed during sleep. Nothing much to worry and it will settle by itself. If lesion persists better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
