Redness around base of Nose
Hello Doc,
There is redness around base of my nose since months which doesn't go by its own.
There is no irritation or itchiness or pimples or dryness or pain. Just weird redness.
I have an oily skin so i make sure i wash my face twice in a day once with plain water & other time with face wash.
I don't use sunscreens or creams as it makes my skin more oily.
I have attached the pics.
Could you please let me know why is it? & possible treatments for it.
Thank you.
