okay well since I don't know much about cysts
why don't you go here:

and post another thread asking the same question

but from the sounds of it, you have a cyst. And you should stop squeezing it, because you're only irritating it more, making it more red and hurt more.
what you can do, is take a few ibuprofen. it will make it hurt less and take down the size and redness for a little while.

hope this helped

go to the derma & get it injected with cortisone...don't touch it yourself

yup sounds like a cyst..like sophiena1143 said if you have $$/insurance go get the injection. Thats what celebs do if they have a big zit a day before an award show it kills it in no time i think. and if thats not an option my best advice is just ice it a couple times a day STOP popping it if there's no white head. NO WHITE HEAD= NO POP lol and unfortunately time will take it away. apply some bp and some kind of moisturizer after so your not peeling from the bp Cetaphil products are great. and hopefully in a couple days it come to a head (a white head) and vwalaa you can pop that sucker and it will hopefully heal after that. but again this is just my personal opinion on how to deal with this others might think differently. But good luck cysts are complete bitches. I hope it goes away super fast!!!!
