What is this spot on my face?

What is this spot on my face? It keeps reappearing with a whiteish head each time and doesn’t seem to want to go. Has been there for about 1.5 weeks now but also had one there before and it feels like the only place a spot ever appears. I don’t have any other spots and never really get them. Thanks

I'd give it another couple of weeks then get it looked at. Sometimes spots just take ages to go and sometimes they're something else altogether.

Is it an ingrown hair? If you lance it with a sterilised needle you can release both the pus and the hair - then put some savlon (other antiseptic creams are available) on it.

Looks like an ingrown hair. I’d be giving it a squeeze to get the pus and hair out.

Yes I'd say that's an ingrown hair. They're usually the culprit when you get recurring spot on the same place.
