What should I do if the pimple becomes hard and I can't squeeze it out? What is the reason why the pimple becomes hard after it grows?

Acne is something that most people have experienced. Many people not only get acne on their faces, but also tend to have the acne become hard and the lumps inside cannot be squeezed out. So, what should you do if the pimple becomes hard and you can’t squeeze it?

What to do if the pimple becomes hard and cannot be squeezed out

1. Stop squeezing acne first

If there is a lump in the pimple and you can't squeeze it out, stop squeezing it first. This situation may be caused by folliculitis or closed comedones. Blindly squeezing will only cause greater damage to the skin and will not be conducive to acne recovery.

2. Sulfur soap cleaning

Washing your face with sulfur soap can help remove excess oil and dirt, reduce the burden on pores, and also help with anti-inflammatory and sterilization. It is helpful for those lumps in acne that cannot be squeezed out. Sulfur soap cleaning can reduce the oiliness of the skin, and the chance of dust and other dirt falling on the skin and being sticky is also reduced, which can effectively prevent the blockage of the sebaceous glands and the secondary infection of bacteria.

3. Chinese medicine for acne

Ingredients: 3g Xanthium sibiricum, 3g Artemisia argyi, 3g Kochia scoparia, 3g Evodia rutaecarpa, 3g Clematidis, 20ml distilled water. Method: Grind the above 5 Chinese herbs into fine powder, stir evenly, add distilled water and stir into a paste. Apply it on the hard acne for about 20 minutes and then wash it off.

Effect: Helps remove acne, and has a good effect in relieving and removing hardened acne.

Note: For those with dry skin and hard acne, it is best to use it once a week, and for oily skin, it can be used 2 to 3 times a week.

4. Apply aloe vera gel

Aloe vera gel has a good anti-inflammatory and acne-removing effect. If there are hard lumps in the pimples that cannot be squeezed out and you try to squeeze them many times, it is best to apply aloe vera gel. Aloe vera gel can help remove scars and acne marks. Forcibly squeezing hard pimples can easily lead to pigmentation and the formation of scars and acne marks. Applying aloe vera gel not only helps remove acne but also prevents the formation of scars and acne marks.

5. Take medication under the guidance of a doctor

For more serious acne, you can use medication under the guidance of a doctor to help remove the acne. In addition, if the body secretes too much male hormone, there will be lumps in the acne that cannot be squeezed out. Do not use external ointments casually. Do not use external ointments containing steroid hormones such as dihydrotestosterone, Felocell Cream, and Enfu Cream, otherwise it will cause steroid-induced acne. Also, do not use bromine or iodine drugs, otherwise it will cause wart-like papules and proliferative acne. Please follow your doctor's instructions for specific medication.

What is the reason for acne to become hard after acne

1. Generally speaking, lumps in pimples are mostly caused by improper care, especially if you squeeze the pimples after they appear, but do not squeeze them cleanly. The sebum secretions in the pimples that are not squeezed cleanly will cause secondary inflammation and gradually ferment inside the closed skin. Therefore, if the pimples cannot be repaired, some people will have lumps, or the originally small lumps will become larger and change color.

2. Acne will become hard, red and swollen due to bad living habits. Therefore, you should develop good living habits, eat less fat, high-sugar, spicy, fried foods, and stimulating beverages such as white wine and coffee, eat more vegetables and fruits, drink more boiled water, and ensure adequate sleep time. Insist on doing more vigorous indoor exercises to speed up blood circulation, promote the timely excretion of waste from the body, keep the pores of the skin unobstructed during the continuous sweating process, and then clean them in time.
