ForumsAcne and its treatm...General acne discus...Irritation Of Pimpl... Notifications Clear all Irritation Of Pimples Derrick Dees MemberMember0(@derrickdees) Posted : 12/19/2013 10:03 pm I am 16 and have typical acne. Not bad. I play football and my helmet sometimes irritates or pops a pimple. I don't touch or pick at all. This won't cause scarring will it?
