Emergency Pimple Help!!

[itzmarylicious]

For the past 3 days....a bump on my nose has been growing and growing. I thought it was nothing but yesterday morning it was huuuuge and it kept on getting bigger as the day went on. This morning it wasn't as bad but its still big. (I would take a picture of it if I had my camera to show the severity of this issue) I don't think its the kind of pimple that you can pop. The only way I can hide it is by wearing glasses. I have a important dinner coming up and want it to be gone by then. Any suggestions???

I put DDF's sulfur mask on it. It didn't help. Nothing has been making it go down or reduce the redness.

SOMEONE HELP ME MAKE IT GO AWAY!!!

go to your derm. Or try an acne spot treatment and make sure not to touch it

It sounds more like a boil than a pimple. I'd try going to the pharmacy and asking them for a drawing salve. That will draw the infection out. I don't know if it will help it be gone in time for your dinner but...you can hope. hth

Have an esthetician draw it out, it might be a cyst.

mount your broom and go to a healthfood store buy a bottle of tea tree EO. mix it with a carrier oil like coconut oil (or alcohol but it's harsh) and put it with a Q tip on your pimple. it works great.

Burts Bees Parsly oil is the greatest, gets rid of zits fast

use a clay mask on it overnight, it should dry out. thats what i do when i have a giant zit.

Thanks for all the tips girls.

Thankfully, It's been drying out on its own. Not fast enough though. Leaving it alone does help. I'll have to try some of the home remedies that you guys suggested. Maybe not the urine one though Colorlicious. I don't know if I'll ever be desperate enough to try. I probably only got a couple more days of hiding

I think it might have been stress...since I had 2 of my biggest most important final exams this week.

A doctor can inject it, to reduce the size and help it heal.

You could also try the aspirin paste. Mash aspirins with a few drops water.

Cover your pimple with it and see if that doesn't help.

And don't squeeze it because that will make it heal slower.

itzmarylicious - exams always give me a cold, and a breakout

... try some benzoyl peroxide, it should dry it out. apply only to the spot, nowhere else as it does cause a little reddening and drying of the skin.

Ok, I thought it was going down. But it's not.....It's been the same size for a couple of days. I finished my exams. Argh.

I got another pimple above that one. Great!! I'm getting so frustrated.
