Resisting the urge to pop your pimples is generally recommended as popping them can lead to further inflammation, scarring, and potential infection.
In most cases, pimples will go away faster if left alone and allowed to naturally heal.
It’s important to keep the affected area clean and apply any prescribed or over-the-counter acne treatments as directed.
