A member asked:

Is there a way to know if a sore inside the nose is just a plain old zit or if it might be part of something like lupus? (rash biopsy possible lupus)

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you. A non-healing ulcer may require a biopsy for proper diagnosis. Have a healthy diet, exercise, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, and get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.
