Ok so yesterday I popped two huge painful (almost cystic) zits on my face. I don't necessarily regret the actual popping because it no longer hurts, but I regret the fact that they've become huge sores. both of them (one more than the other) have formed a yellowish layer on part of it. It looks like an infection or pus. I just want to know how long these scabs will last on my face. (Don't worry, I've quit picking them!) and also don't mind my hideously unplucked eyebrows. The flash really makes the hairs stand out.
hi! this clear scab is most likely your natural skin fluid, but hardened. when you pop a pimple and you see this liquid, stop squeezing! its just your skin's liquid and its not part of the pimple. try not to touch it and if it is still soft, put some benzoyl peroxide on it overnight. if it is truly a scab, put some aquaphor on it overnight and it should quicken the healing process.
