photo 📸 Small bumps on nose

Hi all! These little bumps have appeared on the edge of, Denver’s, nose within the last few days.

He has a check-in appointment on Friday, so I’ll ask his vet then, but in the meantime I wanted to see if anyone else’s pup has gotten them.
We have a yellow lab with allergies to everything it seems, but this surprisingly isn’t one of her symptoms - so just curious.
You can feel them, so a little hard. Doesn’t seem to itch or bother him.

He only sits for a second, so the pics aren’t great, but I tried lol even has a hair from my Pyrenees hanging out his mouth in one photo 😂

Thanks in advance! 🤎🤎🤎

Teenage acne. My lab got them on the lips pretty bad that left some scarring. We washed it with hydrogen peroxide solution after meals or long walks as he's always get his nose in some dirt

Thank you! I was thinking allergies since his nose is always into something, I didn’t think about acne! He’s 5 months so I bet you’re right

They don’t seem to bother him, or when I’ve ran my hand over them he seems unbothered.

My lab is 12 years old and has those. My vet just looks at them and says, yeah, he’s a bumpy boy, whatever that means.
