I have a huge pimple that is causing my eye to swell...what is it?
I had what looked like a large mass of blackheads on the side of my nose near the bridge. I'd had it for a few years. My boyfriend pinched it and ton of stuff came out of it. He claimed there was still more in, so the next day he pinched again. He pinched so hard and it hurt really bad. Well...that night, I noticed my eye was swelling up and the area around the pimple was hardened. It goes from the corner of my eye all the way to the bottom of my nose. My eye has been swollen for a couple days and it hasn't really gone down any, but it has not gotten any worse either.
What could this be? Is it a cyst that needs to be lanced? It hurts worse with each passing day, and is causing my head to hurt on the left side.
