Otolaryngologist Vladimir Zaitsev: people's habit of squeezing pimples on their nose is fatal.
ENT Zaitsev explained in an interview why he encourages patients to never engage in self-removal of acne or boils that occur on the nose. The physician noted that the region of the face, known as the nasolabial triangle, is supplied with vessels that are directly connected to the vessels that supply blood to the brain. If, when squeezing a pimple on the nose, some infectious agent penetrates into the opening wound, it can easily enter the brain.
Why some people feel nasal congestion and cough in the morning: doctor it is strictly forbidden to delete it yourself. The elimination of these formations should be dealt with exclusively by surgeons under conditions of proper sterility. Neglect of this rule is fraught without exaggeration with a mortal danger to a person.
