What Causes Bump On Face?
Hi. Several months ago I got a large bump on my face...Like a zit but much bigger. I squeezed it a lot and got a lot of pus out of it but it still hasnt gone away completely. I try to squeeze it but nothing really comes out but my fingers stink after sqeezing on it. What could cause this? (I am 23 years old, 5 1 and 90 pounds.)

This was an infected sebaceous cyst that got drained upon squeezing and is now quiescent. It will not go away unless it is surgically excised. May I assure you that it is a benign condition.
