One way to alleviate the pain of a painful pimple is to apply a warm compress to the affected area for about 10-15 minutes a few times a day. This can help reduce inflammation and promote healing. Additionally, over-the-counter acne spot treatments containing ingredients like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid may help reduce pain and redness. It’s important not to pick at or squeeze the pimple, as this can worsen the pain and lead to potential scarring. If the pain persists or the pimple becomes increasingly inflamed, it’s best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
