What Causes Painful Pus Filled Bumps In The Nostril?

I have what are looking like pockets in my right nostril. At the tip of the nostril is what looks to be a zit with a reddish black center.It is painful, with the pain going to my right ear. I m running a slight fever and starting to feel bad and am lethargic. Should I be concerned?

Hello,

It could be due to folliculitis. Consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated. You might require antibiotics for further treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
