Pimples are a skin condition which appears as white-centred red bumps on your skin, triggered by hormonal fluctuations.
Popping a pimple is highly discouraged because of the following reasons.
Popping them can open the pores, helping bacteria seep deeper into the skin and can result in more harm than good.
Following the act, the skin can be left with hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation, which can be quite noticeable.
Popping the pimples can facilitate the bacteria to spread to other pores and lead to further breakouts.
It is very important to resist the urge to pop your pimples as they can prolong the healing process to up to two weeks.
If bacteria enter through the broken skin around your mouth and nose, it can lead to infections in blood vessels directly connected to the brain.
