Question : How can I get a small red ulcer to heal that is on my nose?
Hi
Thanks for your query.
A red ulcer on nose may be because of various causes. We need to know the size, duration, smoothness or irregularity, progression with time, etc. It may be due to fungal infection, allergic, immune mediated, seborrheic dermatitis or even some early skin cancer. You need to get it examined by a dermatologist so that the appropriate diagnosis is reached and treated.
Hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer further followup queries, if any.
