What can you do about pimples under the skin?

It's like a hard rock and it hasn't come to a head yet. It hurts.
What can you do about pimples under the skin?
PIMPLE S.O.S -





The rude shock in the mirror


You wake up in the morning, stumble to the basement and wash your sleepy face. As you wipe it dry with a towel, you catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror, and let out a loud groan. No, you're not having a bad face day. It's something much worse than that. It's the (shudder!) biggest darned pimple you've ever seen in your life! Ugh! Where did you go wrong?








What causes a Pimple?





A number of things can cause a pimple:








An improper diet that includes too many soft drinks, spicy and fried food and snacks with high iodine content


Pores clogged by dirt or pollution


Stress


Hormonal changes due to menstruation


Genes - blame it on the folks





Prevention is better than cure:








Wash Right





Wash your face regularly, not more than 3 times a day, unless you're living in a highly humid and/or polluted city which requires more washing to unclog pores. The best way to wash the face is to first lather your face-wash in your hands, apply it to wet skin and rinse. Pat dry. Scrubbing only aggravates the skin and causes further problems.








Cleansing Routine





Cleanse, tone and moisturise your face twice a day. Don't skip the moisturising step even if you have oily skin - just use an oil-free moisturiser.








Exposure to the elements





Avoid exposing your skin to the harsh elements. If you are going for a long drive, roll up your window slightly, so your face doesn't get plummeted by the wind, especially in polluted towns.








Water





Drink plenty of water to detox your system. Impure blood and poor circulation is one of the primary causes of acne.








Eat Right





Unless you are allergic to certain foods, eating junk food doesn't lead to the formation of pimples. But overeating certain foods, especially heating foods like chocolates and mangoes, can lead to an overnight zit congregation.








Get rid of that zit - ice ice baby!





No! Don't burst it! That's the worst thing you can do! It may solve your problem temporarily so you won't go to that dinner with a large white bud blossoming on your mug, but the scar will remain for a long, long time. Instead, try wrapping an ice cube in a thin muslin cloth and place it for about three minutes on a pimple that is just forming. It kills the growth of the pimple. Believe it, it is true.





If a pimple does burst accidentally (or intentionally!), wash the area with soap. Then reach for a lemon slice and squeeze ten drops into a cotton ball. Keep it on the burst pimple for about 10 minutes. The scar will vanish.








Lime n' Lemony





Lemon maintains the pH balance of skin, and it is a good idea to give your face a rinse of lemon water once a day. Just squeeze half a lemon into half a mug of water and splash it on your face. Rinse off the residue with regular water.

Rub in some Magnesuim Sulphate cream , that will bring it to a head then four hours later dab on some !0 vol hydrogen peroxide , that should kill the bacteria the next moring you should be able to squeeze it clean .
Reply:Micro dermabrasion.
Reply:Pimples appear generally at the time of one's attaining puberty, and will normally disappear after a few years. If it continues it is due to excessive intake of fatty food. avoid excessive oil, butter, cheese and such things in your food. Never try to press it to make it burst. Excess pressure given at that point causes blood clot, which becomes a dark spot. It takes longer time to disappear. Secondary infections are also possible.
Reply:Could be a cancer tumor instead, see the appropriate doctor asap!
Reply:Are you acutally ment to..um...sqeeze it-I no it sounds sick but doesnt that leave a scar aka a hole on ur face lol?
Reply:apply sandol wood powder paste for the pimples under the skin ,it soothes the skin and it calm down the pain and upcoming pimples.If pimple came out use turmeric powder paste so that it dreis the pimple and kills the infection be cautios that u have to apply only on the pimple area.
Reply:First I would suggest you see a Dr. or if you choose not to, try placing a very warm wet cloth over the area that has the unwanted pimples. Keep the cloth in place and warm for about an hour. This should bring it to a head or make it just go away.


It could be a cyst and really needs to be looked at by your Dr. Be careful whatever you choose to do. Good Luck.
Reply:Are you sure that they are pimples? You may have milia that have formed. Despite your best efforts at keeping your skin “clean” milia can pop up at any time – because cleanliness isn’t the problem; your skin’s natural ability exfoliate is. Milia are actually undersurface skin cells that form white-looking “beads” because they have not been able to exfoliate naturally. Milia can form just under the skin’s surface anywhere on the body, or even on mucous membranes (like the inner lining of the cheek) or the vermillion (or lip-stick edge) border of the lips. As the surface is naturally exfoliated, milia may resolve on its own, but often intervention may lead to a quicker solution.





Milia form for any number of reasons, some of which can be resolved on your own, other which may take the intervention of a professional. And you need to try to figure out why the milia are forming… there’s usually a problem with the skin on that particular area of your body. So try to figure out the problem’s source. Could it Be the Skin Care Products You are Using? sing heavy, or heavily using, hair and skin care products is one of the most common reasons milia forms. Heavy skin lotions, creams, and other topically applied products can prevent the natural exfoliation of dead epidermal skin cells. Avoid products that are not lableled as oil-free, using products that are noncomedogenic or non-occlusive (products proven not to block your pores).





I recommend using Arbonne, a hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested, botanically-based Swiss formulated group of skin care products. You can find it online at:

Having a good skin care regime is the best thing you can do for your skin, and to combat acne. Look at the Arbonne Clear Advantage System. It has a nutritional supplement that helps fight acne from the inside out.





Good Luck.
