Sore/swelling in nose affecting facial symmetry, recurrent boils, major daily fatigue interfering with functioning.

Infection: Recurrent skin infections or boils in the nose may be due to staphylococcus colonizing this region and a course of effective antistaphylococcal antibiotic like dicloxacillin May be needed to permanently clear you of these recurrent infections. Infections of this area if the face are potentially very dangerous and must be taken seriously.
