    Removing my large nose growth
    In the last 2 years I have developed a large benign growth on the tip of my nose. It sticks out 3/4 inchs and is dark brownish red. It is hard and painful when touched, also when I sneeze a dim yellow substance is secreted. I have no health insurance so I can't go to the doctors. Any solutions on how to get rid of it??

    I would work on getting health insurance and taking care of it properly.

    Do you qualify for low income health care insurance?

    Do you have low income facilities with minimal fees?

    I am not sure how all the insurance works... I really don't want to mess with it. Do you think if I properly sanitized the area and tried to dig it out it would be OK??

    You don't want to mess with having health care coverage??

    Then pay the bill and go to the doctor.

    I will not recommend 'digging it out' on your own.

    NO!! This could be a carcinoma... skin cancer. You need to have it properly examined and treated. There is no way you can treat this at home without risking serious infection and possibly permanent disfigurement.
