Two days ago, I was sick. Ever since yesterday, I've had a pimple that won't go away. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it??

That looks like an insect bite :o but I might be wrong, try applying BP to it or might as well just lie it alone, apply ice to reduce inflammation & if you have aspirin try making a paste/mask and let it dry then wash off that will help drying it out & making the process a whole lot faster

You can try to dry it out quickly by first rinsing your face with warm water then putting toothpaste on the one blemish or you could mix baking soda with water and put that paste on your face.

Don't put toothpaste on, its not formulated for your skin!! They harm it & you definitely don't want to harm that beautiful young skin you have :) I agree with the second thing Desiree said though.

Take a shower then wash your face very well then when you get out put some ice on it to reduce the reddness (knowing that you probley toke a warm shower ) then apply just a dot of white toothpaste to the area then once the toothpaste has completed dried , rinse of the toothpaste with kinda cold water then dry your face then put some non-fragrance lotion.

Toothpaste is fine for your skin just as long as you don't do it every day and just a dot of toothpaste.

Don't do toothpaste. You can burn the surrounding skin and I've read of too many horror stories just from BL beauties alone to tell me that toothpaste isnt the way to go. Your best course of action is to let it run its course. Spot treatment with an acne cream or gel. You've been sick so its probably your body just expelling junk...and weirdly it comes thru the skin.

Yea I've heard that toothpaste dries out your skin. I'm not sure if it works but I don't think I wanna try. But isnt baking soda too acidity for skin?

Baking soda is OK but its a gamble Melissa. It can be either a benefit for skin or a nightmare. Myself personally I just let nature take its course. Spot treatments from Mario Badescu or Murad is what I run to.
