What Causes Red Marks On The Bridge Of Nose?

Hi, I hit my forehead between my eyes with my car door three days ago. No loss of consciousness, little bump and tender. This morning I have red marks at the bridge of my nose by both eyes. It looks like what would happen if my glasses were to tight but the marks are too high, not near my glasses.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have red marks on the bridge of nose, well it can cause by acne which is basically formed due to clogged pores of sebaceous glands , dead skin , sebum and bacteria get trapped in it. It can also occur die to clot from injury , sun burn or post inflammatory hyper pigmentation .I would suggest you to use product containing benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid for acne or cream containing isoteritenoin. For red marks aloe vera is very effective natural product also use azelaic acid cream. If condition persist for more then a month then consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course for acne and procedure like microneedling, collagen induce therapy or chemical peeling for acne marks. Also apply cold compresses on it and protect it from direct sun light .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
