hi, thanks for the query
First of all, I recommend you not to squeeze it as it will not at all help to get rid of it rather it will accentuate the problem...
Maintain a good hygiene of the face...
If it is painful and pus is still present then you have take an antibiotics course like azithromycin 500 mg once a day for 5 days along with apply plain topical antibiotic like clindamycin twice a day for 5 days...
once the infection part is over then you can apply a depigmentating agent like kojic acid or hydroquinone containing cream to get rid of the pigmentation...
thanks
