What Is The Cure For Black Colored Skin On Nose?
Hi, I got some viral fever last week and because of some continuous fever, I got some rashes. Now rashes turned to a dark black skin on my nose. I tried using aloe vera gel and nothing worked out. Can anyone please suggest me some ointment? Will Erytop work?

Hi,
I can understand your concern for black colored skin on nose.
You should wait and watch the pigmentation. It is too early to start any therapy for the same as 1 week of period of pigmentation do not last longer.
If I were your dermatologist then I would have waited for atleast 2 weeks and after that would have suggested you to use azelaic acid cream or Kojic acid cream or glycolic acid cream or licorice extract or arbutine creams at night time in guidance of dermatologist.
The most important part is to use a sunscreen regularly in open environment and on exposure to sun.
Take a proper guidance and follow up with a good dermatologist so that all the problem can be dealt best for future time.
Take care
