I just had to make a thread about this, because it’s pissing me the fuck off! You know those pimples that are just massive bags of pus waiting to be popped but they are under the skin so you can’t get at them? You just keep picking and squeezing and all you accomplish is extra redness and swelling and a lot of frustration. Yah well I have one of those in my damn armpit! Wtf!
Anyone who has had this experience feel free to chime in and complain how annoying they are, damnit this thing hurts lol.
I got one like that in my pubes once. It left a scar. Hell I think it still might there a bit. They bleed like hell when you do try to pop them, too. I’m thinking it’s probably most efficient to aspirate with a needle, because those things are resistant to normal pimple procedure.
The worst part is when you finally think you get all the pus out, then it scabs over and comes back twice as nasty.
I hate when I get pimples on the edge of my nostril. I had an in itch around that area, so I scratched it, and it hurt so bad I saw stars. Fuckin painful. Then it burns for a while.
Sounds like staph folliculitis. If it doesn’t clear up, OR if more appear, get to the Dr. Don’t pop it. If it is staph it is highly contagious and you can spread it on yourself.
It is a very common staph and often first appears in the armpit. Google it.
Ouch… that’s gotta hurt. I know I get these “Super-Zits” fairly regularly on the lateral part of my quads. Just gotta be patient with 'em… douse it with some kind of healing ointment after you’ve popped it, and it may help reduce chances for a scar.
Good luck not crying like a little bitch when that fateful day comes - I know I probably would.
I get them too but I don’t think they’re pimples. I think it’s a combination of deodorant build up and sebaceous gland activity. Just a complete guess because I really have no way of substantiating it.
hahaha if you do succeed a popping 'em. Take a Q-tip with Listerine to it. It burns a lil but it’ll kill the bacteria so it doesn’t spread and hopefully won’t let it get worse. It’s worked for me before.

Did you get them while off cycle?

I’ve had them like 8 times, all off cycle. It’s always been in my armpit or the inside of the top of my thigh, sucks.
Shrug. I get one of those behind my ear now & then; it’s mostly filled with blood. It’s popped while lifting. Gross, but it’s kinda cool to strain so hard you start bleeding … not as cool as a nose bleed but hey.
The doctor has told me it’s from an “overactive gland” which my body thinks is an infection.

Dude that reminded me…embarassing moment.
Last year I too had one of these mofo’s on my neck. So me and my buddy are chilling in my dorm room.(I’m on the top floor). So we decide to go get something to eat and head to the elevator. Now being on the top floor the elevator stopped many times and filled up the brim at about the 3rd floor. You know how elevators are it’s just dead quite, so awkwardly enough my friend looks over at me, sees the pimple on my neck and says “Dudeeee, You have a huge bug bite on your neck!” So obviously all 8 men/women in the elevator turn and look at it. . . that sucked.

Haha… ain’t that a bitch.
Not to be a one-upper, but one time in high school I RANDOMLY (didn’t get many face zits) had the biggest, most disgusting and behemoth-type boil/zit/deathsack growing right in between my eye and nose shaft. I couldn’t even put my GLASSES on because of it. I’d literally spend all day in my classes slowly draining that sucker… I know I had an entire box of Kleenex with me the whole week. I didn’t really care what people thought about me squeezing that sum’bitch out, because it looked much worse to have it there and pretend like it wasn’t than to just reef it out.
By the way, it took two weeks to fully drain and for it to dissipate.
