Ive usually been lucky with my skin and hardly ever get pimples, but when I do, they disappear in about 4-5 days. However, about 10 days ago, I got a pimple with pus on my right cheek, and its only gotten bigger and worse over time. I tried all sorts of things like ice, aloe vera, and even benzoyl gel, but nothing worked. I used tretinoin for a night, then tried putting white toothpaste on it for an hour and a half last night. It stung, so I thought it was working, but this morning I woke up with a smaller pimple and a huge dark brown spot that looks like a burn. Im worried itll scar because I work in entertainment and really want it gone asap. Im using aloe vera now to calm it down, but Im not sure what else I should do. Should I try a different cream or an ointment to help with the burn? Would love some advice!
