whenever i get zits, they never really form to a whitehead, they arent really huge or anything but they arent the smallest things either....they dont really hurt, but are hard to the touch.
They might be cysts. I'm guessing you don't get alot of them at once. Cysts are probably the worst thing about acne. They kinda hurt and take forever to go away.
Like a lot of people on this board, I get cortisone injections right into the cyst. Pain from the cyst itself goes away almost immediately. The inflammation takes anywhere from 6 hours to about 2 days to subside - a lot quicker than letting nature take its course. There are minor risks, such as indentations, that must be considered, though. Good luck.
Are you talking about those little flesh colored bumps? I have those on my forehead and the absolutely drive me nuts, because I can see the bumps in certain angles of light. Otherwise, I cant see them and they don't bother me.
what kind of acne is this?
