See Dermotologist: You may have an infection or cyst.  In this forum, there is no way to determine your exact problem or it's severity, that is why you need to see a dermotologist for evaluation and treatment.

Question 5

i have 2-3 small bumps on the top of my nose for two years now. sometimes if i press on it it oozes clear but ive treated it with over the counter acne products and it wont go away.

Accepted Answer

Fibrous papules: A fibrous papule of the nose is a harmless, small, raised pimple-like growth (papule) on the nose or central face that feels firm to the touch and is skin-colored or pink. There is usually a single papule, but you may have multiple papules. There is no need to treat these as they are not connected to any kind of malignancy/underlying condition. Cosmetic removal is at the discretion of the patient

Question 6

Sebaceous hyperplasia: More likely they are oil glands under the skin , also known as sebaceous hyperplasia...A biopsy will readily give you the answer

Question 7

i had a boil on the side of my nose and it has fully drained after my derm prescribed an ointment but there's still a red bump that won't go away?

Diagnosis?: What was the ointment? How long was it there? How long since it drained? The answer to your question depends to your answers to my questions.

: Have him examined by a dermatologist. It could be an ingrown hair or a bacterial and or fungal infection.

Question 9

dermatologist help* i have tiny bumps across the sides of my nose bridge that won't go away, and what looks like seb derm at corners of nose. my acne that i got 2/3 years ago also left behind raised bumps that aren't going anywhere, what is going on?

Accepted Answer

Exam: You seem to be asking for input specifically from a dermatologist here. The issue is that the various lesions need to be visualized &amp; more history needs to be obtained before anyone can tell you what is going on.

Question 10

skin bump on nose that wont go away. could you help me please?

Accepted Answer

Fibrous Papule: A fibrous papule develops during late adolescence or early adult life on the nose, or less often, elsewhere on the face. It is a dome shaped shiny lesion 2-6 mm in diameter, sometimes bearing a central hair. Although it looks similar to a skin-coloured mole (dermal naevus), it is more firm in texture. It is harmless but persists unchanged lifelong. See your dermatologist for removal.
