Pimple is a small pustule or papule. Pimples are small skin lesions or inflammations of the skin – they are sebaceous glands (oil glands) which are infected with bacteria, swell up, and then fill up with pus. They occur when your sebaceous glands produce too much oil. This oil accumulation then gets infected by bacteria and a pimple is formed. It is just an inflammatory response to an invasion of bacteria inside a pore. The redness, swelling and tenderness of a pimple are all symptoms of inflammation. It becomes inflamed in response to the body attacking the bacteria, trying to prevent it from causing any damage to surrounding tissues. Ways You Can Manage Your Pimples Ice cubes Ice can be used to quickly get rid of pimples. It helps in improving blood circulation to the affected area and in freezing the skin pores and removing dirt and oil accumulated on the skin.You should wrap the ice in a piece of cloth and place it over the affected skin area for a few seconds. You can then repeat again and again till you get tired. When used repeatedly on the pimples throughout the day the ice will help to reduce inflammation or swelling and will immediately soothe your skin.
