A member asked:

Pimple on the nose has grown. does applying heat cook the germs and dry it up?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Um, no.: Heat may "bring it to a head" and allow it to drain, however. But please don't burn yourself, and please don't squeeze it! if it doesn't go away within a reasonable period, see your doctor, because there are other causes for bumps on the nose, and some need to be treated promptly.
