Sounds like sebum plugs, which are composed of oil and dead skin cells. Avoid squeezing your pores as doing so can cause inflammation. To prevent them, exfoliate regularly and use retinol or retinoid topicals to help keep your pores clear. Remember to use sunscreen daily SPF 35+ (mineral based is best for oily acne-prone skin). Retinols/retinoids will make your skin more sensitive to sun damage.
