What is this red spot on the tip of my nose?
About 2 years ago I Had a lot of red irritation on my nose. Since then I’ve had. Red spot on the tip of my nose. It doesn’t hurt, grow, bleed, itch. It has been the same since it first appeared. Any thoughts on what it could be?? I do plan on seeing a Derm soon! Thanks!

It could be something like a Cherry Angioma- it is pretty common and usually isn't harmful at all. Basically, you see them when the blood vessels beneath the skin have broken. They are red little dots, kinda like a mole. If it ever starts to hurt, itch, or change in size/shape- that's when you need to make sure you have it checked out.
