I had nose tip surgery in 2020. Since 2023, the right side of my nose has occasionally been red at the tip, inflamed and swollen. For the past year, the problem has been constant. It drained once. After that, it is red and swollen again. For a year, only my nose was red, and now there is redness on my cheeks and trembling of my right lower eyelid. The doctor gave me a medication in my country called Pregabalin and the condition has calmed down, but I still feel something boiling in the tip of my nose and now on my cheeks. Up to a dose of 50 pregabalin Pragiola (that belongs to a group of medicines used to treat epilepsy, neuropathic pain and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) in adults) was ok, but from a dose of 70 I felt pressure in my chest. I reduced it to 50 but signs of redness on my nose and then on my cheeks appear. I feel that my whole face is burning now, especially the nose tip. It seems like it has spread from my nose to my face. I been given antibiotics, therapy for herpes, applied rosacea creams, but nothing has helped, it would only quiet down the problem. In the last month, tinnitus has also appeared.
