Really deep zit?

I've posted about this already, but it isn't going away still. I've had the same zit since December and it's now May. It is really hard for me to talk to my parents or even anyone in my family so that basically rules out dermatologist or doctor.. but, it's really really deep into my skin.. and it has gone down a little from a homemade cold compress and hot compress but it can only shrink it so much. It's been six months and I am just so sick of waking up everyday and seeing that same zit in the same place and I am so sick of having to hide that it bugs me so much. I hate having to wear my sisters coverup because my parents would see if I bought it myself so I have to secretely use hers and I am so sick of feeling like a freak because everyone at my school has clear skin and they flip out if they have a tiny zit nobody can even see. Help!! I really want it to go away and I don't want to have to talk to my parents about it. help!!!!!!!!!!

Really deep zit?
Go to a dermatologist. That's not a zit, that's a cyst. Those need to be drained in the doctor's office, but it's not that scary a procedure. What they typically do is lance it and then you keep a compress on it until all of it empties out. It happens to people all the time, but I know what you mean because my high school was like that, too! (just as a hint, use Proactiv for good skin in general. it's made mine amazing, and it's what all the kids at your high school probably use, too. of course, I didn't figure that out til college, so my skin wasn't so good in high school. lol). But, all it takes is an appointment with a dermatologist, and they'll take care of it for you, and be able to help you out with any of your other skin concerns too. Good luck! :)
Reply:if you have had it for six months, it is NOT a zit. and you need to tell your parents so they can take you to a dermatologist and get you some help. i know its not what you wanted to hear. but its what needs to be done
Reply:you need somthing heavy duty to dry it out





try going to the drug store and purchasing the strongest acne stuff you can find and i apply as directed...if that doesn't work then use more than is directed to really really dry it out...





if that doesn't work ask your doctor next time you go for a check-up








the best thing really would be to ask your parents about it and they can help you out, maybe get you some acutane
Reply:Sounds like you need to see a dermatologist. This 'zit' of yours that has been there for so long needs to come out! A Dr. can give you a shot of steroid right on the area to reduce swelling and by a few hours, it would be gone!!!!!
