What Does Redness On The Nose Indicate?

I ve got a red area on the bridge of my nose that is not going away. It s not painful, but I can feel sensitivity when I rub it. It s been there for a couple of months. It seems to get better, but then it ll be redder at times. Curious if it s something to be concerned with. Thanks

According to your complaints it could be rosacea. I would recommend you to apply Brimonidine gel on the red areas twice daily.
