The ones inside the nose are horrible… Everytime you itch your nose, it hurts like the dickins.
Ans speaking of the dickins… I’ve heard that acne on ones genitalia is not unheard of either. I guess you knoow the prom sluts when they complain about THAT one coming in the day before the night out!

I once had a zit inside my ear. It drove me absolutely insane, so I decided I had to pop it. Popping a zit inside one’s ear is not an easy task. But I am a talented person.

Hehe, this talk of nasty zit stories reminded me of one.
Anyway my brother had a hige red swollen zit on his nose that had a white head. His girlfriend noticed it, and tried to pop it using her fingers. He said it hurt too much. So, we got a small hypodermic needle from my parents room, and proceeded to pop it. When my bro’s girlfriend popped the sucker, the puz flew out and landed on his pant leg!
Anyway, i’ve had pimples on my ear (one was on the back of my ear). I occasionally get them on my upper lip right at the entrance to my nostril. Trying to pop one of those will bring tears to my eyes. The nose ones hurt the worst.
It’s worth the risk of burning, to have a second chance…
Doob, that is so gross. But I believe you. Cuz one girlfriend of mine when her women friends were visiting they would squeeze the blackheads & zits on each other’s backs. squeeze. They called it ‘grooming.’
When I was 15 I got zits on my pee pee. Weird. Scared the crap out of me. lol. sigh.
Handy: It even made me go “eww” (and rarely does anything gross me out). Fortunately i’ve never had zits on my private parts, but I do get this wierd pimple like thing on my inner lower lip, and I pop it also.

We’re sharing pus stories? All right, this one’ll floor ya. Queasy folks, turn away.
About a decade ago, something pimple-like began to form inside my earlobes. That’s plural; both simultaneously. I never got a white-head or anything, but my earlobes got just rock-solid with whatever was in there.
Well, at some point I gave one a tiny squeeze and fluid (blood in something clear) shot about a yard across the bathroom and audibly smacked the mirror. “Aha,” thought I, and decided to end this earlobe-hardness thing once and for all.
I do not exaggerate when I say that my hand was absolutely drenched with blood, pus, and clear fluid after the next squeeze. My hand could not have been wetter if I had dunked it in a tub of water. Then, I did the other one. The whole procedure was strangely painless, but it was quite gross to see that much fluid come out of my earlobes. Cleanup took a few minutes and a generous spray of Windex on the bathroom mirror.
Since then, my earlobes have remained soft and supple. Can’t explain it.
Max, thank you so much. That was very gross.
I’ve already shared two pimple stories, so I should really stop here, but something is making me go on… (you guys probably all think I must have hideous skin, but I don’t, really.) Once, I was sitting at home, at my computer, probably reading the SDMB, when I scratched my armpit (I was alone. You can be crude when you’re alone) and felt a lump there. I freaked out, wondering if I had armpit cancer or something. So I sort of pinched it, angling it upwards to get a better look at it, hoping my insurance would cover a lumpectomy, and it exploded. It was very gross, and the only reason I’m telling you this was because later I thought the idea of armpit cancer was kind of funny.
I can’t believe I was allowed to graduate junior high.

ya all got little baby zits. You take all the zits you ever got in your life, roll them into one and you get a ‘boil.’ These are zits about the size of your fist. Major messy puss, blood, etc. oh Ive got to hurl now.
I really didn’t intend this thread to degenerate to this extent but what the hell 
Has anyone ever read Jim Carroll’s book Downtown Diaries? He has a great story about a boil on his arm exploding.
BTW, my scabs fell off overnight and now my chin’s just kind of red. I’m healed!
Reading about other people’s zits…and this is how I amuse myself. Sad, and yet…I crave more…

Pet peeve time!!! You don’t itch your nose, you scratch your nose, it itches all by itself.

My husband has horrendous zits and gets infections around his nailbeds quite easily. I pick them and enjoy it. If they seem infected or have a bruised feeling but show no signs of a head, I use hot compresses to try to bring them to a head. I got these neato tweezers with needlelike points. I can reach into a zit and pull out an ingrown hair with them. He gets ingrown hairs easily and they tend to get infected if left alone.
Once he had one behind his ear. A large PURPLE one that sprung up without me noticing. It was the size of a marble and tender. I lanced it with a sterilized needle and gently squeezed. Bloody pus shot up like a fountain not once, but three times from squeezing! It healed fairly quickly after that.
Uhhhgh, yuck. you all are gross, im not one to deny that I ever did anyhting like that, but for petes sake, dont tell everyone about it. yuck, yuck yuck yuck yuck
arhg I have to go now, stomach feeling kinda strange.
You bunch of amateurs.
I’ve had 'em on the ear lobes, on my chest, on my back and shoulders, on my neck, on my jaw, on my cheek, above my upper lip, on my temples (one so big I had to go to the emergency room when I woke up and couldn’t open my right eye), in my left armpit, a large colony of 'em on my butt, and one on my inner thigh near the (otherwise) happy regions. Spontaneous ooze, projectile pus ‘n’ blood. Daily band-aid regimen. Tetracycline. Erythromycin. Benzac. Retin-A. Accutane. Twice. Cortizone shots. Surgery.
I laugh at Clearasil commercials.
LoL You people are disgusting! Funny but disgusting.
Those zits right under your nostrils are murder and whenever I try to pop them I sneeze uncontrolabaly. Sorry mine’s not really that disgusting 
If you have a real bad zit, and it won’t pop, try “drawing salve” (it is meant for boils, which are just giant zits), and covering it for a day, then the hot compress, and eewwww
But we grossed out fnord, so there is a silver lining in everything.
Oh wow. Of course I have to share my gross zit story…
But first…Doob said:
Did anyone else find this odd? I laughed my ass off when I read it…Why do your parents have hyo needles in their bedroom??
Ok, to the story…I had this little pesky zit near my nose, in that crack between the side of the nostril and my cheek. So I tried to pop it, using the whole needle deal, and it wouldn’t pop. So I rinsed my fingers with alcohol and went at it. I have nails, and it got ugly…the next day, the entire nostril/face crack area was red and oozing…and when I pulled my nostril away from my face to examine, it was like a gaping crack…it was AWFUL! I told people my dog had clawed me, and they believed me, because who gets giant wounds there??
I wish I could draw a pic to explain it better!
Another time I got a zit in the space between my boobs, from my bra I guess. This was when I was smaller, like a B cup, and I just put some acne med on it. Then it got bigger, so I tried to pick it, and it got nasty. SO that day I go to the mall with a friend and try on a halter top (I was 14 and thought they were cool) with no bra. But the neck ties get stuck and I can’t get out of the shirt. So I have no choice but to beg my friend to help me…and she sees the giant zit between my boobs. I was so embarassed, but luckily she never said anything.
FYI, when I went to a dermo last year, he had this paper with a human body on it and blanks - he was supposed to count the zits in each area of the body and write it down (I guess just writing “face” was too hard; he needed a pic.) But they had an arrow and a blank pointing from the genitals!! I was already creeped out by the guy, I was like, “NO way is he looking for zits on my vagina!!” I was petrified, but he never tried anything, thank god!
My sister once had a huge zit that covered the
side of her nose. She squeezed and squeezed and
squeezed the blood and pus out of it. Finally
something that looked like a small white pebble
came out.
I had blackheads and pimples inside my ears. They
are impossible to pop.
I’m glad someone had the good taste to resurrect this thread 
The infected zit that started the whole thing is but a distant memory (Thank God) but I’ve got plenty of others to worry about. Most annoyingly, I seem to have developed a perma-zit, well actually two perma-zits, on the right side of my neck just under my jaw. I swear to God I have tried everything and these things just won’t go away (we’re talking months here. Suggestions?
Have you tried using roll-on anti-perspirant.
Sounds crazy, but it works. Just rub some one
and leave it there. The stuff is drying and
anti-bacterial, so it does make sense.
