Herpes on the front of the nose is considered to be herpes simplex, which can be treated with medication as prescribed by the doctor, and skin care should also be strengthened.
Herpes simplex is caused by herpes simplex virus infection, which is a self-limiting disease, but the disease is easy to recur. Usually, patients can use 3% acyclovir cream, 1% penciclovir ointment and other antiviral drugs to treat, but also can use topical glycerin lotion to achieve the purpose of astringency. When secondary infection occurs in the lesions, it can be treated with topical fusidic acid cream and mupirocin ointment.
When herpes breaks out, 3% boric acid solution can be used to apply wet compresses as appropriate. In addition to medication, oral antiviral drugs such as acyclovir and vasiclovir can be taken if the condition is serious. In daily life, patients need to strengthen skin care and avoid sharing washbasins and towels with others.
It is recommended that people with herpes on the front of the nose should go to the hospital in time and follow the doctor’s instructions to use medication, not to use medication indiscriminately.
