Boil or infected pimple on my nose

Asked Oct 26, 2007, 09:43 AM — 1 Answer
I had a pimple on my nose. It had a white head in the center. I tried to squeeze out white head. Nothing came out, it's swollen twice it's size. I can see the white core in the middle. I have soaked in Epsom Salt, used peroxide & using triple antibotic salve. It's only getting
Bigger & much, much sorer. Anyone have any suggestions have to get these darn thing to drain? It's so sore I can hardly touch.
Thanks

You need to have this examined by your doctor immediately. It sounds as though you may possibly have a staph infection.
