Re: pimple on forhead turned into cyst
Stop squeezing it....you spread the infection by doing that and this is what happens. Try using hot compresses--- make a washcloth as hot as you can stand it, without burning your skin or your hands and let it rest on the area.... do this a few times...and DO NOT SQUEEZE it further.
Then go to the ER.. or an urgent care...you need antibiotics.

Re: pimple on forhead turned into cyst
These happen to me all the time, not on the face though but on the thighs mostly or underarms, don't TOUCH them at any cost, get some anti-bacterial gel and apply to make it go away or dry. My dermatologist recommended Lamisil antifungal cream to me, it does the job for me.

Re: pimple on forhead turned into cyst
Please go to a doctor or ER if you can't get 8n asap....request a swab test as well to know what kind of bacterial infection you have.
