Many reasons: Too much sun may irritate the skin, especially, the nose. Are cheeks also involved? Any new soaps, foods or shampoos. Sometimes stress, alcohol (drinks), or infection can cause this. Avoid direct sunlight, use sunscreen or zinc oxide ointment and if not improving, see dermatologist. Hat may keep sun off to some extent.
