I was picking at my skin on my nose and my nose started bleeding excessively. I applied pressure with a tissue on it to stop the bleeding and it turned purple/red because there was blood under it. I did the ice and neosporin and it's still there. I'm putting retin-a on it just to speed up the process. I have a picture below.

It's kind of an open wound. That's a little sore. May be bruised idek. With blood under I think.

 

What should I do? This is on the side of my nose and I have school tomorrow. I don't want to look like a freak. I have so much regret bc what I was picking at was soooo minuscule. And my parents are upset that I make myself look like this post-415131-0-28965700-1414323831_thumb.

Blood under the skin and bruising are the same thing. Just take care of it and chill out. It'll fade. Worst case scenario is it'll be longterm hyperpigmentation, so get that covered with sunscreen asap to minimise the risk.
