When ever I pop a pimple, it gets bigger and then shrinks down. Can anyone tell me why it gets bigger if i already poped it?

popping it is NOT the answer is why.
When it comes to a head (white or black cone) it is producing more oil. The best way to relieve the pressure and open that is by cleansing.

Apply a warm/hot wash clothe to the area to "open" the pours.
Get a gentle cleanser that has "oil remover" and gently in a circle pattern "on and around" it clean it well. Be sure to rinse with a cooler water, and use a "sea breeze" toner on top of it.

IF you insist on popping, then do it after the warm/hot clothe and be sure to clean it very well. That "head" your removing is bacteria (puss/oil). Soapy clean, and "toner" on the area, I actually always recommended Neosproran. You now have created a wound. DO moisturize your clean face at night with a light anti bac lotion.

Zits are internal issues that let you know these things, your diet is not good, your hormones are nuts, you are sick/infection or its mostly genetic (your family had them too).
I bet if you changed your diet, no grease, those zits would disappear with out an issue.

To reduce swelling, use a cold pack over a dry wash cloth applied to the area.

You have made it bigger initially by causing some inflammation in the tissue surrounding the pimple. Be very careful -because you can actually make the bacteria from the pimple go deeper and make it worse and taking longer to heal.

You should not pop pimples it only makes them worse. It can go down deeper and cause scarring, know from experience. Apply hot compresses to them it will bring them to the surface.

It gets bigger due to interstitial emphysema -- fluid accumulation (primarily blood and lymph) into tissues damaged by the 'popping'.
