Im a pimple popper. I wish I wasnt but I am. I cant fight the urge to resist picking and popping at my skin. Ive never ever had bad acne my whole life. Im turning 20 in June. I just made this account 5 minutes ago because im freaking out. When I usually pick at a pimple sure its red for a day or two but its never this severe. Im absolutely embarrassed. This is new to me. I went to CVS last night and bought some On The Spot Acne Treatment by Neutrogena. So far it appears to have reduced the redness but its only been a day. Anyway what happened was I was picking and popping at some white heads on Thursday... come Friday I see these terrifying things appear on my face. Saturday things got worse. I applied ointment on them and covered them up with a band-aid to stop the urge from poking at them STILL and also I couldnt bear the sight of them. I went to sleep and woke up pretty late in the afternoon. Took off the band-aids and BOOM smackdab in the middle of my cheek (both sides) and my forehead! These awful marks from the band-aid were left over on my skin. These weird white sacs are also seen on the spot. The next day the white sacs appeared a gross looking yellow? I put the acne treatment on a q-tip and gently rubbed the ointment on the skin. They popped and PUS came out. At this point im ugly crying in the mirror and freaking out. Im terribly sorry if you suffer from severe acne and have been for your whole life but this is new to me! Are these going to heal? What is this?
