You seem to be suffering from furuncle of the nose which is because of infection of the hair follicles inside your nose. It can be very dangerous condition in diabetic patients as it can spread rapidly. You may need to take intravenous antibiotics and painkillers for few days
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
