Pimples can indeed get bigger after being popped due to the release of bacteria, oil, and debris into surrounding pores, leading to further inflammation. The popping process may also cause trauma to the skin, prompting the body to produce more inflammatory substances, making the pimple appear more prominent. Additionally, improper extraction techniques can result in the spread of infection and the development of new pimples in the surrounding area. It's generally advisable to avoid popping pimples and to seek professional guidance for safe and effective acne management.

Pimple is formed due to accumulation of bacteria and unwanted pathogens on/under your skin. Once a pimple is poped, you are using pressure to extract the accumulation. There are two possible outcomes, you do it successfully and the area is cleansed, and your pressure has promoted coagulation of blood, hence the opening will be closed after small bleeding. Second possibility is that, you have no done it correctly, which means there are bacteria still in there, and also on top of that you have made your pimple more vulnerable to external pathogens. In that case, your pimple will come back, (due to remainings) and it might become bigger (due to the extra bacteria which entered the region.). If done correctly, the answer is a solid no.

How do you get rid of popped pimples fast?

I know this answer sounds weird but it actually works. If you rub toothpaste into your skin where your pimples are right before you go to sleep they get much smaller. Toothpaste makes the pimples dry so they shrivel and become much smaller. Also toothpaste has fluoride, which kill the bacteria and makes the pimples cleaner so they are not as clogged and disgusting. Another thing you can do is pop them, but you can't pop them right when you get them you must pop them when they are ready (which could take a while). It worked for me and now the pimples are gone! :D
