Hey guys,

I have had these pimples on my chest for almost a year now and they have not developed any head, does anyone know what they are.

They like 70% hard. and refuse to go away.

Hmmm....I'd have a derm look at these ASAPif you have had this long, just to rule out another skin condition or problem. Do they hurt at all, ooze or bleed??

It's just been there, they don't bleed or anything - neither do they hurt

OK that's good at least. I'd still maybe have a derm look at them. It's not normal for a pimple to hang around that long. A few months is not uncommon for cystic acne, but a year is a bit much. Perhaps the above poster is correct...could be raised scars. Did you have a bout of acne here before??

Again, have a derm look at these. They can tell you what's going on and what to do about it. We all have some working knowledge of acne but are not doctors so are unqualified to diagnose.
