I have a gigantic spot on my chin

So I get spots every now and then.

And then I get HUGE spots. Omg I’ve got one right now on my chin, I think it’s a white head maybe filled with some blood too. It’s unsightly.

What can I do to make it go away? A few friends have told me those spot star patches are good?!

@Orangesandlemons4

Pimple patches have a type of exfoliant in them, typically saylicic acid that helps breakdown the bacteria clogging up that pore, it helps the breakdown process move along quicker and acts as a barrier to any additional bacteria being added via fingers or bedding.

Acnecide cream from chemist.
Put on your chin twice a day / before bed.
Doc recommended it for hormonal jawline spots - amazing stuff!
About £8-9 in Boots.

If it is a big, sore chin spot then squeezing it will scab and scar. I love a spot squeeze but for chin ones it ends up messy and horrible.

I find I get them with being run down, hormones, not looking after skin. I've just tried a pimple patch on the recommendation of teen daughter. It's taken away the pain and urge to squeeze so far so definitely worth a try.
