White spots on both sides of nose

The nose is a very important organ in the body, but it is also a part where problems are prone to occur. The most common reason for white stuff on both sides of the nose is whiteheads. It is mainly because the hair follicles are blocked, forming white keratin papules. There is no obvious pain or itching. You can learn more about the acne and make a comprehensive judgment based on your own problems.

Causes

It is caused by the accumulation and blockage of keratin cells in the funnel of the hair follicle, and the filling of keratin and sebum inside.

Clinical manifestations

Because individual responses are different, the degree of damage varies, and the clinical manifestations are also different. Some people only experience mild acne, while others develop severe cysts, leaving behind pigmentation and scarring. Therefore, clinically, the symptoms are classified according to their severity:

Grade Ⅰ: mainly comedones, with a small number of papules and pustules, and the total number of skin lesions is less than 30;

Grade II: comedones and moderate papules and pustules, with a total number of 31 to 50 lesions;

Grade III: A large number of papules and pustules, with a total number of 50 to 100 lesions and less than 3 nodules;

Grade IV: Nodular/cystic acne or conglobate acne, with a total of more than 100 lesions and more than 3 nodules/cysts.

treat

If the rash is small and the inflammation is mild, no treatment is required and it can be allowed to subside naturally. If there are more rashes and severe inflammation, active treatment should be given. Especially for patients with pustules, nodules, abscesses, and cysts, if not treated in time, they will be left with depressed or hypertrophic scars, affecting the appearance of the skin. Therefore, this disease should be treated actively and reasonably.

1. Facial cleansing

Wash your face with warm water, because cold water is not easy to remove oil, hot water promotes sebum secretion, do not use irritating soap, sulfur soap has certain benefits for acne, do not use vanishing cream and other oily cosmetics.

2. Eat a healthy diet

Eat more vegetables and fruits, and less fat, sugar, spicy and other irritating foods to keep your bowel movements smooth. According to medical researchers, among young people who eat more kelp, few suffer from acne. The reason is related to the high zinc content in kelp. Zinc is an essential trace element for the human body. It not only enhances the body's immune function, but also participates in the normal metabolism of the skin, enables normal differentiation of epithelial cells, reduces keratinization of the sebaceous gland duct openings of hair follicles, and facilitates the discharge of sebaceous gland secretions.

3. Do not squeeze with your hands

To avoid causing suppuration and inflammation, the abscess may break and absorb, forming scars and pigmentation, which will affect the appearance. Antibiotics are effective for people with severe infections.

4. Combine work and rest

Keep a happy mood and do not create psychological burden, so as not to cause neuroendocrine disorders and aggravate acne. For patients with mild symptoms, you can wait for it to subside naturally, because acne generally does not leave any traces after it subsides.

5. Treatment

Using retinoic acid, retinoic acid, and vitamin A can improve the keratinization process and help alleviate and eliminate symptoms.
