Squeezing spots can be fatal: dermatologists

NEW YORK: Dermatologists have said that squeezing spots on the corner of the mouth and on top of your nose can be fatal.

According to a report published by The Independent, skin experts have stated that spots on the top of the nose and mouth corners, also known as the danger triangle, should be best left alone.

It is said to be particularly dangerous as it may affect the blood vessels which are directly in line with the human brain.

An infection in the area may affect the nerve centre.

Earlier, we had only heard of scars but the recent study may prove to be an eye-opener for those who pop their spots every now and then.
