I have a lump on the bridge of my nose, what should I do?

What you should do is apply honey on it and it will reduce in size. Witch hazel also helps to reduce the size of the pore, thereby decreasing the size of the lump. Give it a few days and you will see the results.

It's quite common to have a lump on the bridge of your nose. Sometimes it happens after you break your nose. To be sure, ask a doctor for more advice.

It depends upon what kind of "lump" it is. If it as an acne lump or bump, do not squeeze or irritate it since this will cause scarring or will cause the lump to get bigger, use a face wash containing salycilic acid (one is Biore) or put anything containing vitamin E to help heal it.

You should always leave things like that alone. If you pick at them or touch them, you could aggravate the lump and cause further infection, thus allowing for the lump to thrive on your nose. If it worsens over time, you should consult a dermatologist.

First go to your family doctor and find out what the lump is. They will probably run test to find out if you have an obstruction or what. Then your family doctor could refer you to an ENT.

The best thing to do would be to go to your family doctor and get them to give you a referral to a dermatologist. Otherwise go to the make up counter and ask them what they know or if they have any creams that they could suggest to you to try.

It would be best to consult a highly qualified plastic surgeon as he may be able to perform a rhinoplasty which is a surgical procedure to make your nose more appealing by diminishing any imperfections which are not happy with. Ensure you see before and after pictures so you know what to expect.

you need to go see a doctor but if it does not hurt. there is no need to worry, it should be fine and will dissolve after a few weeks. You can also use ot water with lime, by sniffing in it 2- 5 times a day. It should help dissolve the lump.

It could be a ingrown pimple or blackhead. This should be looked at by a doctor. You might have a sinus infection that caused this.
