What Is The Reason For Having Painful Bump Between Left Eye And Bridge Of Nose?
I have a painful bump in between my left eye and the bridge of my nose.
I have had a pimple / blackhead in that spot for many years. I occassionally squeze it and white stuff comes out, but after I squeezed it recently, nothing came out and it became red, swollen, and painful. I left it alone and the swelling and pain have decreased but the painful bump is still there. Any suggestions?

Hi
The site of the skin lesion that you have mentioned is a very common site for a basal cell carcinoa. Also since the lesion has been long lasting in your case ,so I would advise you to see a nearby dermatologist and get yourself assessed to rule out the above possibility .
You need not panic also since it is a locally invasive carcinoma and can be treated if detected on time.
Hope it helps
