Question 1

I've got a bump that just popped up on the side of my nose out of nowhere, and it's been hanging around for two weeks. Whenever I try to mess with it, I get this white pus along with some blood from the pores. My skin is super oily and I do get these acne bumps sometimes. I'm wondering what might be going on and how I can get rid of it. Any thoughts?

Accepted Answer

The sudden bump on your nose could be a:

1. Sebaceous cyst
2. Pimple or acne cyst
3. Ingrown hair

To get rid of the bump:

*Self-Care*

1. *Stop picking*: Avoid squeezing or picking the bump to prevent further inflammation and scarring.
2. *Warm compresses*: Apply a warm, damp washcloth to the area for 5-7 minutes, 2-3 times a day.
3. *Keep the area clean*: Gently wash your face with a mild cleanser, avoiding harsh products.

*Topical Treatments*

1. *Benzoyl peroxide*: Apply a 2.5% benzoyl peroxide cream or gel to the affected area.
2. *Tea tree oil*: Mix a few drops of tea tree oil with a carrier oil (coconut or olive oil) and apply it to the bump.

*Professional Help*

If the bump persists, worsens, or becomes severely inflamed, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

In the meantime, consider:

1. *Oily skin management*: Use oil-free products, and consider a clay-based mask to control oil production.
2. *Acne treatment*: If you're prone to acne, consider consulting a dermatologist for a personalized treatment plan.

I've got these small pimples on my face, and when I press them, tiny seeds come out. It's been over 20 days, and they're not going away. I'm kind of worried. What could be causing this, and should I be doing something about it?

Question 3

I'm a 25-year-old guy and I've been dealing with some intense itching around my private area for the past few months. It's gotten so bad that the skin has turned black. I've tried using things like Nicil powder, but nothing seems to help stop the itch. What could be going on, and how can I get some relief?

Accepted Answer

That could be fungal infection,visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management and also maintain personal Hygiene for better results

I've had Fox Fordyce for 8 years and it's been hell with the constant itching only corticosteroid creams give me relief. Would surgically removing all my armpit sweat glands cure this condition? I'm desperate for a permanent solution since creams just manage symptoms.
