Suggest Remedy For Blisters On Nose
Hi I was sick last week with high fevers, congestion and sinus drip. I m feeling better now but now I have blisters on the end of my nose that ooze clear fluid and bleed. It s very hard to stop the bleeding. The skin tingles just like a cold sore does. I went to the pharmacist and he suggested using polysporin antibiotic cream and placing a bandage on it. Do you think this is impetigo or herpes simplex?

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have blisters on nose could be due to allergic reaction , dirt and oil get trapped in the pores, resulting in sensitive bumps , rosacea and eczema, can also cause pimple, it could be due to systemic diseases such as Impetigo, herpes simplex. Exposure to irritating substances like soap and chemicals are other reasons. I would suggest you to stay away from allergens , take anti histamine like benadryl and keep yourself in moist environment . If condition doesn't get better then consult dermatologist for proper evaluation of the condition . Doctor may prescribe decongestant , anti allergic and corticosteroid ointment .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
