   Go buy a medication for it.Do not squeeze it out with a bobby pin as the last users mentioned! It can get infected! Take it from someone who ended up in the hospital in a quarentined room hooked to iv for 3 days! I mistook a spider bite for a painful blackhead and popped it.

   Bobby pin??? NO.
   I do facials for a living. I would not recommend squeezing it yourself, you risk infection and spreading. I recommend going to an esthetician to have it professionally extracted, they won’t charge much. However if you must do it yourself…first clean the skin, put a small pot of water on the stove, bring to boil, put a towel over your head, and let the steam hit your face for about 5 min. Careful not to get too close. Then use an extraction tool, found in Walmart, any drug store. And GENTLY press down over it, the steam opens the pore to allow it to come out easier. Or wrap your fingers with toilet paper and gently squeeze each side.

   Although it’s painful and will make you tear up, squeeze it out; / and or try Pro-Activ creams and cleansers…Sorry there isn’t an easier way..Take care..

   I say get those clean & clear tape thingys all say they look like white tape and put on your nose and it will take it off because I have a bunch of them on my nose I take the tape and pu it right off and it is just clear. It is like medcation tape if you ask me try it should work and it did’nt even hurt.
