Answer 2

This sounds like cystic acne. What basically happened is that a "pocket" has formed underneath there. Do not try to pop it, you can spread the infection that way. This type of acne really needs to be treated by a dermatologist.

Answer 3

Not a good idea to mess with it. It is cystic, which means the infection can spread. Not to mention can scar. I suggest go to the dermatologist if it only worsens. Use an anti bacterial wash, be consistent. Don't touch!!

Answer 4

I get those all the time on my lower face like my chin area. It might not have any puss in it now, but tomorrow it will and then you can try poping it again. After you pop it and get all that puss out apply benzol proxide on it like clean and clear cream. THis will dry out the pimple and it will go away within a few days.

Answer 5

It is a blind pimple. Leave it alone. The best thing for that is witch hazel They sell it at many stores next to the alcohol. It is a great astringent and it is cheap.Keep putting warm compresses on it. It will eventually go down.

Answer 6

If the "zit" has been there very long, especially if it's been getting bigger or darker, get to a doctor right away. See your own doctor or a skin specialist (dermatologist) and make sure it's not a symptom of something serious.

Answer 7

this is what you need to do, before you sleep, put a toothplast on the pimple and when you wake up wash your face really good, and if it didn't move do it again, it help me

Answer 8

I would get some Benzoyl Peroxide (10% stuff) and put it on there. That should bring it to the surface.

These suck!

Answer 9

I to had this problem but don't worry. Try to pop it little by little. It also helps to put ice on it.

Answer 10

you need to see your dermatologist before you irritate it any more and cause an infection.
