is it true if you bust a pimple that it will spread?

Answer 1

No, if you pop a pimple it will not spread.

But, when you have one people have a tendency to touch it a lot, and have to pop it sometimes more than once. Doing this will irritate the skin around it and that will help lead to more pimples in the area.

The best thing to do is pop it with a hot compress and let that drain it, it will also keep the surrounding skin from becoming irritated.

Answer 3

That one pimple spreads underneath the skin, so it might take longer to go away. Also busting it explodes the pore, causing a possible scar. But it won't spread and causee more acne.

Answer 4

Pimples are caused by clogged pores. Busting one will not make it spread unless in the busting process it clogs other pores.

Answer 5

It's possible. Pimples are filled with bacteria, and popping them will cause that bacteria to spread around, possibly causing other pimples to form.

Answer 6

If you pop it and rub the puss and stuff into your skin, yes that'll usually create more pimples. but if you dab up the puss and wash ur face afterwards with a facewash like clearosil or proactive or something like that afterwards it should help.

Answer 7

It all depends on if you have a"popper" a "squiggler" or an "oozer" An oozer is more likely to spread. Poppers can turn into an ooze afterwards. Just clean up real well when your done playing.

Answer 8
