Pimple On Back, Increasing In Size. What Treatment Should Be Taken?
Hi Dr. Grief. My boyfriend has had what appears to look like a big pimple on his back, but it not. When I try to squeeze it nothing comes out. he has had it for a year but it seems to be growing. It s hard to explain because on the outside it looks like a big zit but when I pick it, it is big on the inside. Who should he see for this? Thank you for your help :)

It is difficult to diagnose without examination i advice you to see surgeon for examination and for next best line of treatment.
