Tried to bring a hurting pimple to the surface to pop it but only made it worse. this morning my lip around it is swollen, what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Complications: You may have released any germs or debris that were contained within the zit capsule into the deep tissue. It will either cause a deep tissue infection requiring treatment or our body will contain it. Moist heat may improve blood flow around the area to speed recovery or make the need for a visit more obvious. That is one of the complications of messing with zits.
