Constant Pimple With Greyish Head Filed With White, Sore On Popping, Brown And Dead Skin On Squeezing. What Is It?
I have this weird pimple/mole type thing, usually with a pimple it eventually goes away over time but I had this thing for a long time, probably years. It has like a greyish head and some white inside it if I put pressure on it. I tried popping it but ended up becoming sore one time. I was sitting in the bathroom dismorning and was looking at it and I notice that when I squeezed it, it was coming out and a bunch of this stuff, kinda looked like dead skin and it was brownish. It was kinda solid as well? Is this just a normal pimple and is it normal to have some stay for years?

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might have developed sebaceous cyst.
It is a collection of dead material under the skin.
When you press this material comes out as black debris.
Dont worry its not a dangerous condition.
Treatment is mainly surgical.
It can be removed with the wall of the cyst, through a small incision.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
