I have a growth on the inside of my nose ride on the place

 

Customer Question

I have a growth on the inside of my nose ride on the place where the hole in my nose is. At first it was really small and looked like a pimple, but now it looks like there are many small dots joined together. It is actually starting to look like a wart or something. What is it and how do i get rid of it?

Dermadoc : Hello
Customer :

Hi

Customer :

Have you answered my question?

Customer :

where do I see the answer?

Customer :

Hello?

Customer :

Where do I find my answer. I do not see it

Customer :

It says that you have answered the question, but I don't see the answer.

Customer :

At first when I noticed the growth, it was just a small dot, kind of like a little round ball. However, as the days wore on I would notice that more and more little dots would form, all cluttered around each other. I tried scratching them out, but they would just always grow back. Now the lump is roughly the size of a wart. How do I get rid of it? What caused it?

Customer :

Can you please respond.

Customer :

I have paid the money, have not received and answer, and you are in chat but not responding. Are you receiving these messages? I don't know if my signal is bad.

Dermadoc :

hi

Dermadoc :

sorry

Customer :

Hello?

Dermadoc :

for the delay

Dermadoc :

was having some technical error

Customer :

That makes sense

Customer :

Have you answered my question yet?

Dermadoc :

could you please post a picture here?

Customer :

The bump is on the inner part of my nose so I can't really take a picture of it

Dermadoc :

ok

Dermadoc :

from your description it seems to be folliculitis

Customer :

what's that?

Customer :

and what may have caused it?

Dermadoc :

its a bacterial infection

Customer :

...okay

Customer :

how do I get rid of it?

Dermadoc :

you need to apply bactroban cream on it twice a day

Dermadoc :

for a week

Dermadoc :

that should resolve it.

Customer :

can you be a little more specific?

Customer :

as in where can I find it?

Customer :

and what happens if it doesn't go away?

Customer :

what else could the bump be if it turns out not to be what you said?

Customer :

just in case

Dermadoc :

bactroban cream to be applied twice a day on the lesions inside your nose for a week.

Dermadoc :

they will go away with the cream

Customer :

where can I find bactroban cream?

Dermadoc :

its difficult to say for sure without seeing what it is

Dermadoc :

its most likely folliculitis.

Dermadoc :

second possibility is a wart

Dermadoc :

bactroban cream will need a prescription.

Dermadoc :

the only cream available over the counter is neosporin

Dermadoc :

but that wont be very effective

Dermadoc :

hence i recommend bactroban cream

Dermadoc :

please let me know if you have any queries

Dermadoc : Hello
Dermadoc : Please let me know what other concerns can i address for you
Dermadoc : I woulf be glad to give you any more information you may want
