Brief Answer:
You do not have basal cell carcinoma

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Since the spot in your nose has not changed in size and appearance I do not think you are having basal cell carcinoma.

If the spot increases in size and becomes inflamed with pain then you need to do a biopsy test to rule out malignancy
