Adult, Male, Nose (Edit search)
Click the pictures below to see information on conditions that involve skin of the adult nose. The nose is one of the most noticeable parts of the face, and any skin changes in this area are concerning to many people. Common examples of conditions affecting the nose in adults are acne, rosacea, and moles (nevi). The prominence of the nose on the face also makes it susceptible it to significant sun exposure. This exposure to the sun can lead to pre-cancerous and cancerous growths. Actinic keratosis, basal cell carcinoma, melanoma, and squamous cell carcinoma are examples of growths caused by sun exposure. These can be very dangerous conditions and require urgent medical attention.
