Question 1

i popped a pimple on the bridge of my nose and now have a headache am i going to die i am really scared ?

Accepted Answer

Stay calm !!: Popping a pimple does not lead to death if the pimple was related to a skin problem such as acne. Most likely, the pimple and your headache are not related.  If you are concerned, you should see a doctor regarding your headache if it is unusual or not responsive to OTC Tylenol (acetaminophen) or Motrin assuming you have not allergies to these medications.

Question 2

how to rid of pimples on nose?

Accepted Answer

Meds: Many patients do well with over the counter benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid preparations. Some patients require topical or oral antibiotics or retinoids as well. If the over the counter meds alone don't control your acne after a month of daily use, see a doctor for additional treatment options. It is important to be persistent, and some patients 'get worse before they get better'.

Question 7

how do i remove a painful pimple on the side of my nose without pain?

Accepted Answer

Do not squeeze it: A "pimple" (pocket of pus in the skin)  on the side of one's nose should not be squeezed because if it is located in a certain area, sometimes the pus can go into veins without valves and actually end up in the cnetral nervous system, with severe effects.  Use warm soaks and let it go away on its own.  If it is not doing that, see a doctor.
