3 Steps to Deal With Dilated Pore of Winer

If you have a dilated pore of Winer, you may report to have a keratotic plug from the center of the affected pore, as many people with this condition. Once the substances within the pore are expelled, a keratotic substance, alike the original plug, refills the pore within a few weeks. In order to expel soggy, white keratin from the deeper portion of the dilated pore, you have to repeat the motion.

Many patients tend to leave the affected pore untreated, which allows for an enlarged affected area. This condition is more likely to occur on people who have had a history of severe ache. Consult a dermatologist promptly if you have such a skin condition.

What Is Dilated Pore of Winer?

A dilated pore is a condition that causes the appearance of a single, protruding, open comedo (a comedo being a clogged pore). The condition usually affects the face; although it is benign, many consider it to be gross and unsightly.

A dilated pore will often appear as a single, large comedo on the face, most usually on the cheek, upper lip or forehead. The condition can also affect the trunk, like the back or chest, but there are some rare incidents where a lesion on external ear carnal is found. An individual's skin around the affected pore will often not change, showing nosigns of induration or inflammation.

Causes of Dilated Pore of Winer

The cause of this condition remains wholly unknown. But the primary inducement of the dilated pore may be the obstructionor infection of a person's follicle ostium, which is similar to other cystic conditions

As for race, this condition has been reported in white males on average. As for sex, although both sexes are possible to be affected by this condition, it is more predominant in males than in females. As for ages, the condition can affect people of all ages, although most cases are diagnosed in people over 40. However, many cases report having suffered with the dilated pore for many years before seeking treatment.

How to Deal With the Dilated Pore

As each case of dilated pore can vary in severity and size, how to deal with the condition also varies.

1. Exfoliate with Skin Scrubs

For minor lesions, some patients may be able to successfully treat the condition with exfoliating skin scrubs; although it is recommended to visit your dermatologist in relation to what products are the best suited to use on your condition.

2. Maintain Good Skin Care Habits

Maintaining good skin care habits helps to prevent lesions appearing on your face or trunk, and reduce the occurrence. Just try to avoid any bad habits, such as scratching or picking at the affected area. This can exacerbate the condition and possibly cause the pore to become infected.

3. Remove It

To remove the dilated pore, a referral from your doctor is necessary to make your first appointment for removal. This is usually achieved via a punch excision, around 1-3 mm. Use of lasers, or other superficial means of exclusion have proven unsuccessful.

  • Your health care professional will then remove the contents and the wall of the pore, then stiches the opening up, usually only one stitch is required.
  • Your health care provider will often suggest the application of antibiotic ointment on the wound, the day after the surgery, and that you change the bandage on a daily basis.The stich will be removed, on average, around 5-10 days after the surgery. The procedure to remove the stiches should be painless.
  • When tending to the wound, any redness, swelling, discharge, or pain you notice should be informed to your doctor as soon as possible.Unless the wound is exceptionally large, you should be able to batheand carry out your daily activities, and just follow your doctor's advice.

NOTE: There is currently no way to prevent the recurrence of the dilated pore of Winer, and no cream is available to treat the condition. The procedure of removal is generally not covered by private health insurance or OHIP.
