Strange Skin Patches
Hi, I have 2 discolored peeling patches of skin on my nose. When I squeeze it when I squeeze them blood and clear fluid ooze out, I was wondering if you could tell me what it is. I had general anesthesia for the first time about a week ago however one of the patches was already there before. The other patch just developed today. I wash my face often and have two pimples at most so that makes this surprising. The patches of skin are smaller than a penny and sting and burn when I touch them.

- It's difficult to suggest or advice you without a proper image
- You can visit a dermatologist nearby for better assessment & to get appropriate remedy.
Next Steps
- I suggest you not to squeeze any lesions on the face, it might lead to pigmentation and scaring.

Regarding your query I got to clarify something. When you say patch do you mean a flat lesion? Or any kind of raised lesion? Does it itch or burn or sting?
From what I understand reading through your description is it could be one of the following
Seborrheic dermatitis
Acne vulgaris
Dermatophytosis or
Folliculitis
It will be very helpful if you can provide me with a picture of the lesion.
