Keep your face and hands clean and leave the little bugger alone. It is never good to pop a pimple or a zit because bacteria can enter the bloodstream or cause an infection and scarring on your face. I prefer using an astringent that contains 2% salicylic acid and then using a toner. I also use a moisturizer for the face every night that contains benzoyl peroxide that will kill bacteria that cause acne. If you use make-up, make sure to clean your brushes and recycle all product every 3 months or sooner. It helps to eat a healthy diet and drink 6-8 glasses of water every day! :) HOPE THIS HELPS!

∙ 13y agoDon't pop it in the first place. Bathe it in an antiseptic (Something like watered down Dettol) or place an antiseptic cream (Like Savalon) on it every 6 hours.
Eventually it will go down.
If it persists, see a doctor - that is what they are for.

What is a blind zit?
A Blind Zit can be a fairly large or fairly small pimple that has been stored far beneath the skin.These types of zits are not easily popped because there is a layer of skin blocking it, which is usually the cause of the large bump.Unless the zit rises to the surface, you can use a needle to poke into the middle of the zit to reach the pocket. However, I highly recommend not using this method to get rid of the zit.How to get rid of the Blind Pimple:My own personal way of getting rid of blind pimples is by NOT POPPING THE ZIT. Under any circumstances, do not pop this zit. It will only cause scarring and pain.Freeze an ice pack in the freezer and every night, take the ice pack out and place it on the zit when you are sleeping. The cold will help decrease swelling and make the zit smaller.After a while, you might be able to pluck off the top and squeeze the blood out. (Sometimes, blood is all you will get so don't pick too much. Just take the blood out to relieve the pressure.) IMMEDIATELY wash your face after removing the blood. Continue to use the ice pack until the pimple is completely gone.How to pop the zit safely:If you wish to pop your zit due to personal reasons, do the complete opposite from my method. Use a hot pack every night and place it on the zit while you sleep.After a few nights, see if the zit has risen to the surface. If it has, simply pluck off the top and squeeze the zit out.Some cons about using this method is you will have scarring and there may be a lot of bleeding. Also, when you pop the zit, it might hurt!(ZPT) Zit Popping Tip:When popping zits, use your knuckles instead of using your finger tips. This will prevent the fingernail indents and prevent a scar.
