The “Triangle of Death” refers to an area on the face where infections can potentially spread to critical veins in the head, leading to serious complications. If you have accidentally popped a pimple in this area, it is important to clean the area thoroughly with an antiseptic, apply an antibiotic ointment, and monitor for any signs of infection such as increasing redness, swelling, warmth, or pain. If you notice any concerning symptoms, seek medical attention promptly.
