I have a pimple on my nose that will not go away! What can I do about this?

I do not get frequent pimples and especially at 28 I have noticed I have went years without seeing a blemish, but right before Christmas I noticed I had a pimple forming on the outer top of my left nostril and I knew it would be a stubborn one.





In the past I have had those embarassing pimples on my nose that took a week or so to go away but this one tops them all. It has been over three weeks and this fairly large pimple acts like it is healing, puss drains out, a small scab falls off only to discover another fresh pimple brewing underneath. I have used some over-the-counter medications and they have not worked. I have tried to avoid messing with it because I was told I might be reinfecting it by trying to pop it, but it's still here.





What could this be? A cyst? Something cacerous? A boil? Or is not unheard of to have such a stubborn pimple on your nose that takes many weeks to go away?I have a pimple on my nose that will not go away! What can I do about this?
got to a dermatologist. he will probably prescribe you some benzoyl peroxide. if you said you pop it and it comes back, that means that when you try to pop it instead of trying to make it come out you are forcing it back in and making it come back up. I suggest you leave it alone it will eventually come out and heal by itselfI have a pimple on my nose that will not go away! What can I do about this?
it's problibly a zit, and you should talk to your doctor for some perscribed acne creams or for some helpfull hints.
I have an acne treatment that has won me the best answer better then twenty times. Often, the person who voted it the best answer was amazed at how well it worked, even those who had severe cases of acne. I'll copy and paste it below.





Use a hot compress on it (a washcloth, sponge, or anything that will allow you to apply moist heat to the area), and then use cool water to close the pores. Do the process over and over again, about five or six times. Use soap to wash the area, rinse it with warm water, blot off the excess water with a clean towel, and then treat it with an alcohol soaked cotton ball. It should be gone within five to six hours.

I don't get pimples either, never did, but when I do get one its a doozy, usually on my chin and it comes and goes for weeks, until one day its gone. Of course I am girl and I can cover it pretty much up with make up. However if you're insecure about it or worried you should see a doctor just to make sure that it is only a pimple.
