Hello,

Thank you for writing to HCM

It is called as nasal salute, a mark due to upward rubbing as you said. occurs commonly due to allergic rhinitis.

First avoid upward rubbing of nose.
For hyperpigmentation use kojivit gel daily in the affected area. glyco 6 daily night only in the affected area.
Take Citravite tablet daily once.
other options are chemical peeling and laser for hypergimentation, kindly consult dermatologist in person for these procedures.
