I’ve got a cyst on my face, and I’m wondering if I can just pop it like a pimple. Is this possible?

It is not recommended to pop a cyst on your face yourself as it can lead to infection, scarring, and worsen the condition. Cysts are sac-like pockets of tissue that can be deeper and larger than regular pimples, so attempting to pop them at home can result in more harm than good. It is best to consult with a dermatologist or healthcare provider to properly assess and treat the cyst.
