Question
A patient experiences pain in the left nasal wing upon waking up, feeling a hard lump that can be squeezed to release a white substance. The next day, the pain extends to the upper lip, suspecting it is related to the lump. What could this be, and how should it be handled?
Answer
Based on the description, the patient’s condition may be due to excessive sebaceous gland secretion leading to clogged pores, forming pimples. It is recommended to take a vitamin B complex, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, avoid spicy and greasy foods, increase water intake, maintain regular bowel movements, ensure sufficient sleep, and avoid staying up late. Do not squeeze pimples with your hands, especially in the dangerous triangle area, to prevent intracranial infection. Topical erythromycin ointment can be used externally, and if necessary, one should visit a public hospital for further examination.
