STILL waiting to see the dermotologist........
The pimples I'm getting now have heads on them, but they are very small and are still turning a large area around them very red. Are these still cysts or what!? It seems like if I don't pop them, the whitehead and puss never comes out and just stays underneath and they stay around a long time and look more likely to leave scars. Any advice? |

Well a lot of people tell you not to pop pimples because it gets worse, well from my experience I say it aint true. If you leave the white stuff when you first see it bacteria in it keeps multiplying it, causing the area to become very red and painful.
When I usually see a pimple I just pop it till all the white stuff comes out (so you would remove any possibility that it starts regrowing), then the day after all that remains is some redness which eventually goes away faster than if you would have left the pimple |

Pus (white stuff) is just a combination of dead white blood cells and bacteria. Poping it maybe not remove all the bacteria althought i do find it fun.
