About a month ago I developed a rather large red pimple on my nose.  I attempted to treat it with hydrocortisone to calm the inflammation.  After about 3 days, I attempted to pop the pimple before it was ready BIG MISTAKE #1.  The next day I began to see a dark spot forming.  It got worse until the point where I began to pick the skin BIG MISTAKE #2.  I picked at it until most of the dark spot was gone, I applied triple antibiotic to it and went to sleep.  When I woke up the dark spot had returned even bigger.  Please help, because I've just started my new job and a dark spot on my nose is very noticeable.

UPDATE! I ordered a 25% glycolic peel and yesterday I applied it to my face. I am not sure how it will work but I am hoping for a light peel of that top layer of skin to help diminish the darkness of the spot.

Just give it more time and do not pick on it again if you don't like the idea of having a scar on your nose. The scrub will fall off by itself in a week or even more depending on how deep is the wound.

Similar thing happened to me recently. Did this ever go away / any tips?
