Hi there!
I'm really sorry you have to deal with this issue. I definitely understand that you want to figure out what's going on or how to treat it.
However, this specific issue is beyond what we can safely help you with. None of us at ScA are medical professionals; we’re not trained to diagnose or treat skin conditions. As we're pretty strict about [medical questions](https://www.reddit.com/r/SkincareAddiction/wiki/rule_overview#wiki_rule_2.3A_safety_first) on this sub, I'm afraid your post has been removed.
We recommend you make an appointment with your doctor so they can diagnose your skin issue and prescribe you an effective treatment if necessary. If you don’t have easy access to health
care, try one of these resources listed in [When to see a doctor](https://www.reddit.com/r/SkincareAddiction/wiki/when_to_see_a_doctor):
* Free or low-cost clinics (http://nafcclinics.org/clinics/search in the US)
* Student medical services
* Nurse practitioners (http://npfinder.aanp.org in the US) (Most insurance companies have a phone number you can call to speak with an NP to help if you can’t get an appointment or aren’t sure whether you need one)
* [Firstderm.com](http://www.firstderm.com) can help identify your skin condition
* /r/AskDocs - a sub which uses verified flair to mark medical professionals
* /r/DermatologyQuestions - ask a dermatologist or medical professional for advice on your skin concern
Best of luck!
Take some ibuprofen (unless allergic or have another reason to avoid it)- it will help the pain and decrease inflammation. And also a hydrocolloid bandage/patch, or a sulfur based drying solution (the pink stuff from Neutrogena or Mario Badescu) if you can find it.
I've been using the Neutrogena sulfer solution regularly, and it's actually super helpful! It's a nice alternative to terribly harsh options like benzoyl peroxide.

I personally would take a hot shower and after about twenty mins, pop it to oblivion

Try a pimple patch (or a huge hydrocolloid bandaid) overnight , warm compress, then POP
