If your skin is already prone to acne breakouts, at some time or another, you are going to get a pimple inside your nose. By this, I mean a pimple actually on the membrane of the inside of a nostril which is both uncomfortable and tricky to deal with.

This type of pimple or sore in nose can be caused by picking the nose and this type is most common in children who transfer dirt containing bacteria from beneath their fingernails to the delicate membranes inside the nose.

Another cause of a pimple in nose if you are a man is when you pluck out a nose hair. This can also happen if you trim your nose hair and accidentally nick membrane inside your nose where an infection can start.

Because the nose is so sensitive and has so many tiny blood vessels in it, having a pimple in nose can really bring tears to your eyes and can swell so much that it blocks the nostril which is uncomfortable and can even be noticed from the outside.

How to treat a pimple in nose:- In a small bowl, put a teaspoon of salt and dissolve in a small amount of freshly boiled water. Allow this to cool. Dip a Q Tip into the cooled salty water, press off excess water on the side of the bowl and use the Q tip to gently clean the affected area. Discard the cotton bud. If necessary, repeat with a clean Q Tip, do not dip the same cotton bud back in the water.

Next dry the area if possible by gently wiping with another Q Tip. Now use another bud to apply a tiny amount of antibiotic cream to the affected area. Repeat the treatment morning and night or as often as directed on the antibiotic cream you have chosen. You must be certain before applying antibiotic cream that you are not allergic to this type of antibiotic. It is better to be safe than sorry. If you are allergic or prefer not to use antibiotics, you could try a tiny spot of tea tree oil which is a natural antiseptic.

By following the simple steps outlined above, you should be able to heal a pimple in the nose within a few days and if no improvement is seen within this time, check with your doctor. It is important to take extra care to avoid damaging the delicate lining of the nose again if you want to avoid further painful spots and pimples in the nose.
