A member asked:

What is this pimple that hurts and itches. would it be a bad idea to pop it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Infection: This sounds like an infected hair follicle. Some of the reactive proteins in your skin are causing the symptoms. "popping" pimples is not a good idea since it can spread an infection. See your physician.
