OUCH! It hurts but I don't know if I should pop it!?!


Question: OUCH! It hurts but I don't know if I should pop it!!?
I have a pimple and it REALLY hurts!. It's above my chin and it has a whitehead on it!. But I don't know if I should pop it because that will make it hurt worse and it could possibly leave a scar!. I do use acne cream/cleanser but it doesn't seem to work!. Help me, please!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
If it has come to a head (which yours has) it's ok to speed up the course and pop it!. Put a warm compress on it to make it easier to pop, and don't squeeze with your nails, press down on the sides of it with the pads of your fingers!. Then put something antibacterial on it, like tea tree oil or I guess even neosporin, since the whole reason you got a pimple was because of trapped bacteria and you want to make sure it goes away!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

clean it gently with an acne cleanser!. When I have really painful pimple with a whitehead on it, I use toilet paper to pop it, the clean it thorouly with water!. if you dont want a scar, this may be too risky, but I have never had a problem with it!.

or!.!.!.the better option!.!.!.take a little dab of toothpaste and put it on the pimple!. Leave it on for about 30-60 minutes or longer!. this will usually dry out the whitehead, so you can flick it off or just let it heal on its own!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hey

If I were you, I would probably pop it, no pain, no game!. :(
Spots really annoy me, especially when they are filled with puss!
Just pop it, then wash your face with nice cold water, and maybe use a face wash, and cream, it leaves your face clean, and feeling fresh! x
Then after time the spot will heal and dissappear! :)
I doubt it'll leave a scar, sorry if it does!

Good Luck

By popping it it will relieve the pressure and not be so painful!. It might end up as a small sore for a few days but it wont be so painful!.

Those creams never have worked, save your skin from the chemicals and give yourself a honey and rolled oat facewash every now and then!.!.!.!.!. Pimples are a fact of life, especially in our polluted world even at 35 I still get the darn things as do all of my friends!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

get like really hot water and dab it on a washcloth and hold it on for as long as you can bear it!.
it should make it come to a head more!.
with those ones that hurt i usually wait a day to pop them!.
when i pop mine it definatley relives the pain although it hurts to pop them lol!.
but it works for me without scarring (:Www@Answer-Health@Com

Put a hot, damp washcloth on it!. If it doesnt pop on its own after that, take a sterilized needle and gently open the clogged pore!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Whether you pop it or not, it still may leave a scar!. If toothpaste, and warm cloths, and cleansing doesn't work - do what you gotta do :PWww@Answer-Health@Com

Pop it!!!

Squeezin' the mashed potatoes!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

either drink a lot of water and eat healthier, or get new cream, and don't not pop it trust me on this, it's not a good result!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
