I have a red bumb has formed on my cheek?


Question:
The bumb hurts when I touch it and i'm not sure if it's a pimple or not?How do I get rid of it without going to the store or wasting a lots of money and is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening again?

Answers:
it's probally a pimple or something that's not too much out of the ordinary so dont pop it or it will spread into something else or maybe it's a water boil
It could be a bug bite so we aren't sure what to suggest yet if you aren't sure it's acne.
I'd keep the area clean with pure soap and water - (gentle soap like berts bee, aveeno, nutragena)
If it itches offer a cortizone cream - if it's acne you'll need an acne wash, cream -

You can also apply a hot compress to the area -
if it is a bite offer a little ice - and take a benadryl orally if it swells -

Acne - will respond to some treatment if you do a regime
wash, toner and cream
twice a day every day.
wash it with warm water and soap
its a pimple. just leave it. it will burst or disappear. if you can't ignore it when the pain becomes unbearable and the top of it is tense and whitish/yellowish just squeeze it, pop it and clean it with water.most people are advised not to squeeze pimples especially on the face. Never squeeze the ones around your nose as these have blood supply links directly to the brain so infection can spread there.
It could be an ingrown hair which can turn into a carbuncle, which is very painful. If it doesn't go away or gets bigger, go see a doctor and get antibiotics. Good luck.
i think the best answer is to go to the doctor and check it out because your health is important maybe go to a clinic or somthing but you should check that out maybe allergies
consult a dermatologist
