When a pimple is rock hard, it typically indicates that it is deep within the skin and has not yet come to a head. This type of pimple is often a cyst or nodule, which are more severe forms of acne. These types of pimples can be more painful and may take longer to heal compared to regular pimples. It is important to avoid squeezing or picking at these types of pimples, as it can worsen the inflammation and potentially lead to scarring. If you have persistent or severe acne, it’s best to consult with a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment.
