Understanding your concern. As per you query you have acne on face specially on nose and you have normal skin, well root cause of acne is sebaceous gland under the hair follicle , when sebum get accumulated in clogged duct of sebaceous gland along with dead skin and bacteria they produce acne. I would suggest you to wash you face 2-3 times a day with mild soap and warm water to prevent the accumulation of oil ,dust and bacteria on your face. Apply apple cider vinegar then wash with warm water twice daily. You should not touch or prick area around nose. If acne still persists consult dermatologist for proper examination. Apply raw honey on acne for 15 minutes daily and then wash. Doctor may prescribe ointments containing benzyol peroxide,azelaic acid or retinoids. Sometimes docotr may also prescribe antibiotics. Apply vitamin E oil at night. Avoid greasy creams ,use water based products.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
