| Popis: | A 36-year-old woman with a history of type-2 diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia presented to a general practice facility with a four-day history of a red, swollen, and painful nose. She had been feeling feverish and noticed some discharge from the tip of her nose on the morning of presentation. She couldn’t recall any trauma or insect bite to the area. She denied plucking her nasal hair or picking or blowing her nose excessively. Tere was no history of other dermatological conditions. Her medications were extended-release metformin (2g at night), modifed-release gliclazide (60mg in the morning) and simvastatin (20mg at night), but she admitted to not taking them regularly. She was unsure of her glycemic and lipid control as she had not seen any doctor for her chronic conditions in more than one year. |
