One day I had these weird tiny bumps on my chin that weren't whiteheads, blackheads, or pimples. I started picking on them and then the next day I got a huge pimple with puss in the middle and it was red all around it. After, I soon had the temptation so I popped it but I only popped the puss out. Then after, it went back to those bumps but a more noticeable. A few days ago, I tried popping them again and today I woke up with a huge pimple like this! 😿

I now know it's bad to pop pimples, we'll I knew it before but I really know the bad effects of it! So any products, tips, or tricks to help it?

(Sorry for awkward pose and flash, I know this picture is a little weird, haha.)

First I'd apply a hot washcloth to lower down the swelling

Try proactive if you are serious about it.

Jacqlyn thanks! I'll try that but I'm not sure if it will work! I put these products on it and coconut oil during its time but I'm not sure.
I also used the murad spot treatment.

Okay I guess I should do that. So is there anything else you would recommend? And do pimples usually last this long?

Okay thanks! I usually never get pimples but I think I got this one cause of picking... I guess I'll try to lower down the things I use on it. Thanks for the tips!

I would press a warm washcloth on it for about two minutes and then with the wash cloth I would push in an upwards motion.

Wash your hands and pop it then clean it with antibacterial soap then put some kinda acne medication I love how clearasil spot treatment works it goes away quick like it dries it.

Coconut Oil is moderately comedogenic - not mild.
Tea tree oil to help disinfect. Neosporin after if you decide to pop it.
Tea tree gel from the body shop contains too little amount of tea tree oil to offer any benefit. I wouldn't use the elf zip zapper on it.
Aloe Vera can help and contains salicylic acid as well.

Kitty so would you recommend any type of popping , such as only popping so that the puss only comes out? Because It hurts and it's bothering me as well.

Yeah I agree with kitty neosporin after. If I pop any pimple I usually pop it at night then apply neosporin and a bandaid and the next morning it's completely healed and it doesn't return.

Thanks lynzie! I guess I'll take that into consideration.

If you need a quick fix, dot it lightly with eyeliner and say its a beauty mark.

Popping is not recommended. But being realistic, I get the same kind of pimples you get. And often times, they are accompanied with a headache because of how much pain it can give me. So usually, I pop it and then wash my face. However, I do use a deep cleansing tool that uses T-Sonic Vibrations. After I have done my skincare regime I go ahead and apply tea tree oil and a bit in the surrounding area, as well as neosporin. I usually continue applying tea tree oil and applying it in surrounding area for a couple of days.

I'm sorry but you might want to have that looked at by a dr because that doesn't look like a regular comedone and it may be Mrsa which lives on a lot of peoples skin ,and popping it will only spread the small abscesses,if they continue to pop up and won't go away please have it looked at ,

Traci my mom wouldn't let me go to a doctor! She thinks I'm being a 'baby' it sucks! Do you think leaving it alone with putting no products on will help?

And also, it started like just regular chin bumps then I picked on it! And it's not going away!

Here's another picture for reference... Sorry it's a little awkward haha.

You may have gotten the bacteria from your skin in it when you were picking it hun just try applying warm compress on it till it pops then clean it with some peroxide and put a bit of neosporin but if you see them spreading or it keeps coming back in the same spot it would be best to have it looked at

Thanks traci! But what if it hurts to where I can't pop it all the way? Because last time, I popped it only till where the puss came out. Then, it came back! So would It be best just to leave it?
