Question 1

Popped pimple inside nose and started
bleeding. in "triangle of death" what should i do. should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

Have you been watching Dr Oz???  Anyways, don't worry.  The fact that it started bleeding probably reduces your risk of infection rather than increase it, because the blood "washes" bacteria away from the break in the nasal passage.  If your nostril starts to get sore or swell, turn red or any other sign of infection, then get on antibiotics right away.  Just watch for signs of infection.

Question 2

Having nosebleeds every 3rd day, pimple like object inside nose. had same thing in 2011. what could cause these?

Accepted Answer

Possible staph aureus colonization and bleeding from site of infection. Are you bleeding or bruising anywhere else?  If not unlikely true bleeding problem.  Pimple makes me think something more local/infectious.

Question 3

Tiny sore pimple w/head  inside nose bottom. cleaned with alcohol on q tip (held breath but could smell it for a few seconds anyhow).  tx? muiprocin?

Accepted Answer

rks there.  It is a one/day antibiotic. If it doesn't go back to your doc.

Question 4

Red bump inside nose right at the nostril opening also small pimple on the outside of nose just on one side what is this? should i pick at it or leave it alone.. earlier the outside of my nose was red and tingling now its not. it also itches

Accepted Answer

This is likely a oil gland infection at the base of a hair root, (folliculitis).Applying moist heat will sometimes improve circulation enough that it will spontaneously drain & heal. If you pick it the infection can spread to surrounding tissues & create a noticeable scar or need more aggressive treatment. Applying antibiotic ointment just inside the nasal outlet can also help.

Question 5

What do you recommend if i have a pimple inside my nose?

Accepted Answer

This is a danger zone - try warm compresses.

Question 6

Is it normal for a pimple inside the nose to have a slight bleeding ?

Accepted Answer

All whiteheads have a roof and a sonewhat thin covering of mucosa, when broken, they bleed. Diect pressure will stop the bleeding

Question 7

Can putting rubbing alcohol on a pimple inside my nose help it shrink and go away?

Accepted Answer

I would not suggest to put rubbing alcohol inside nose pimple. Rubbing alcohol is an irritant and it might make worse.

Question 8

Pimple on & inside my nose.appeared after i pierced it. it started to grow bigger so i removed the ring.but after 4yr pimple is still there & is hard?

Accepted Answer

You probably have a keloid. See your dermatologist for evaluation and treatment options.

Question 9

Is antibiotic ointment good for pimple in nose?

Accepted Answer

If you can get the ointment on it then it may heal faster. It certainly can't hurt to try.  These things do eventually heal on their own though.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Acne is very common . Highly unlikely for that to the cause if a brain abscess .
