A member asked:

I tried to pop a blind pimple that had no head. it didn't pop and a layer of skin came off and blood just came out. what do i do now ive made worse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Leave it alone: Keep it clean and don't pop it any further. When you pop a pimple, you may drive infection deeper in the skin or increase the chance of scarring. Use a acne med and a good sunscreen (irritated skin or acne-medicated skin can be more sensitive to sun damage).
