You can try applying a spot treatment containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to help reduce inflammation and stop the pimple from progressing.
Additionally, refrain from picking or squeezing the pimple to prevent further irritation.
Keeping the affected area clean and using non-comedogenic skincare products can also help prevent the pimple from worsening.
