How To Get Rid Of Big White Head In The Crease Of My Nose?
So I have this really big white head in the crease of my nose, and it only hurts when I press on it. It looks like it s filled with puss, but when I tried popping it, it really hurt so I stopped there and it s gotten redder. Can I make this go away any faster/how do I get rid of this ugly thing?

hello and welcome to health care magic,
Since the swelling gets redder and is tender I would earnestly advice you to consult an ENT as soon as possible so that a proper diagnosis and treatment can be reached.
He may recommend an antibiotic medication for the same
You can meanwhile keep the area clean and apply a safe antibiotic ointment
hope this helps
