What Causes A Cystic Pimple Under The Eyebrow While Suffering From Headache?
I was pretty sure I had a cystic pimple developing under the corner of my eye brow (closest to my eye). I have had pimples there before and it felt similar. This started a little less than a week ago. By last Thursday it was pretty swollen. In the past day I noticed a dark spot appearing in the middle of it. With this I have had some headaches and itching. I have had a basel cell carcinoma in that area before, but it was removed years ago. I am familiar with the signs of skin cancer and they typically do not develop this fast. Could this just be an infected pimple that is causing the headaches and itchiness...as well as a sort of burning sensation?
From hearing your history i think it is the infected pimple that is causing the headaches and itchiness.
I would advise you to apply a mild cleanser to a washcloth and gently scrub the affected area, rinse with warm water and dry with a clean towel. Cleansing your skin twice a day helps to reduce the excess oil and dirt from your skin to help reduce or eliminate pimples.
Apply benzoyl peroxide to infected pimple. Benzoyl peroxide is available over-the-counter. Follow the manufacturer’s directions when applying the product to your skin. Benzoyl peroxide helps to eliminate the bacteria that causes acne and reduces the fatty acid that irritates pores.
