Painful Reddish Spot On Nose, After Been In Sun, Keeps Coming Often. Staph Infection?
I noticed a spot on my nose after I had been out in the sun. It is reddish in color and at first was painful. Now the pain is gone but it is still on my nose. Sometimes a blister will appear and then disappear. It seems like that place heals and then the spot moves down, a blister will appear and then the spot moves further down. Could this be a staph infection of some sort?
