Best Answer

Pimples are the direct result of skin pores becoming clogged with sebum, a naturally occurring oil, and dead skin cells. In these conditions the naturally occurring bacteria Propionibacterium acnes can cause inflammation, leading to inflamed, damaged tissue in the dermis, which can hurt like any infection.

Anything that is inflammatory is going to hurt, and unfortunately acne is just such an example.
