Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to a nasal foruncle. I suggest using warm compresses at the area of pain. I also suggest using Neosporin cream for local application. I also recommend to tame Acetaminophen in case of pain.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
