Why is it bad to press pimples on your face?

742 views

I’ve seen this almost everywhere, 11 out of 10 persons I’ve met have warned me against pressing pimples growing on my face. They only suggest that I wait it out.

Anytime I ask, I always get a similar response, “it’ll make it worse”

But does it make it worse? And how exactly?

Popping pimples on your face can cause irritation, inflammation, and scarring, especially if done with too much force. In some cases, it can also allow the bacteria from the pimple to get deeper into your skin. Leaving them alone and not picking or pushing at them can allow them to heal without irriation.
