Hi... the end of my nose has started hurting a bit and is a little swollen. This usually happens to me before getting a badly painful pimple (like what happened here hxxp://www.acne.org/messageboard/-t282640.html)
the one in the thread has now nearly fully healed just a small slowly fading spot, and now again i am starting to get another one.

And this is when i take special care to clean the area and wash the face 3-4 times a day.

Please tell me what can i do to stop it or at least reduce it from fully blowing up like it usually does even if i don't touch it and with the usual amount of cleanliness.

Thanks in advance.

You should,at max,only wash your face twice a day. All your doing is irritating your skin by over-washing.

You need to tell us more about the specific products you're using.

from what i read on the board, try dabbing AHA on that. It might stop it.

hmmm...well that could be it.
i'm currently applying something called garnier pure pimple control over the affected area. it has mainly zinc, salicylic acid and some eucalyptus stuff. i've applied it about 5 times in the last 36 hrs and the pain has now receded and the redness has also nearly ended...seems to me its working

i will try that if it decides to come back again.
