What Causes A Pimple And Tingling Sensation In The Crease Of The Nose?

hi for the past few months i have had a slight burning/tingling sensation in the crease of my nose.originally there was a small skin coloured pimple there which i had checked out by my doctor and he said is seemed ok but since the 'pimple' went away the tingling sensation has remained and twice i have had a 'whitehead' looking pimple appear in what seems to be the same area.there is no feelings or sympotms on the opposite side and i want to stress my mother had a bcc removed from the side of her nose in a very similar position to where i am having a problem.once the whitehead cleared up there seemed to be no noticiable marks.is this something to worry about?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per you query you have pimple and tingling sensation in the crease of the nose which seems to be due to allergic reaction, hypoglycemia, dehydration and it is due to clogging of ducts of sebaceous glands. Need not to worry. 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 vitamin E oil at night. Apply kojic acid cream on face. Avoid greasy creams ,use water based products. Don't pick or touch acne. If pimple still persists consult dermatologist for proper examination. Get your blood tests done and sugar levels monitored. Doctor may prescribe ointments containing benzoyl peroxide,azelaic acid or retinoids. Sometimes doctor may also prescribe antibiotics.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
