A member asked:
Help, squeezed a black head on the face hard with tissue paper and it appears that the skin has been bruised or some sort of discolouration around it?

Just a bruise: Very likely just a bruise. If you pinched your leg really hard, the same thing would happen. Unless it gets all red around it and the redness continues to spread, don't worry about it - it will go away with time.
