What Could The Facial Blackhead Be?

I have had what I think is a blackhead on the side of my face so I decided to try to extract it last night but sterilizing a pin and opening the skin up for an easier removal. It bled badly and the blood was of course red but I noticed the tissues I used to soak up the blood had a grey matter in it. It scared me a little so I stopped messing with it. Do you think it was a black head after all or something else. It is still there, just a little less noticeable.
