sounds like a papule. Cysts are hard. Put some BP cream on it. Dont worry, it's only one spot! Some people have loads!

Right now my skin is perfectly clear, for the first time in 3 years. It's been about 9 weeks and all my acne is gone. It is such a great feeling to wake up with clear skin.

It is a cyst. Lemme guess, it is a hard red bump with no pore? You can try antibiotics. Best thing to do is to see a dermatologist. They will have to drain the cyst in a controlled environment because there is a high risk of infection. If your mom doesn't believe you, look on www.webmd.com it is a website all about health. You can look up your symptoms to show your mom.

If it's inside your nose, it's probably from allergies such as spring pollens from all the trees and flowers. Dab it with a spot of Neosporin three or four times a day. If it's on the outside, same thing.

I had a cyst on my cheek for a few years. Kept picking at it and had to have cut out. Ended up with a scar on my cheek. I'm a guy so this is not so bad! My advice is to leave well alone! STOP PICKING! God I've become a grown up! lol

If you've had this for 2-3 weeks, your Mom needs to take you to the doctor. It could get infected & cause even more problems, not to mention what it is doing to your self esteem!

a cyst is a pimple. just another name for it really. either way, stop poking it and put some benzoyl peroxide on it (this usually sells in stores under names like "spot treatment") but look for the active ingredient benzoyl peroxide. it will clear it right up!!!

it's a pimple, a cyst is a peice of bone or some sort of debris floating under the skin inside a fluid pocket, if it were a cyst it'd be just a lump, no redness and you'd probably be able to move it around, and it'd be obviously UNDER the skin and not on it.

whatever it is,,,stop poking on it...it'll just get infected. go see a dermatologist. remember, it is located in your T-area...most delicate portion of your face. an infected zit could cause death you know so pls see a doctor.

It sounds dumb but just leave it alone. Doing all of that stuff will irritate it more and make it harder to go away.
