Pimple giving me a headache?
With it being on the fore head the tension it would cause since it is stretching the skin a bit would be quite intense on the nerves. therefore when you touched it and put a bit of pressure on it , it would have increased that tension causing it to be painful :/ best option for it is to wrap up a cube of ice in a towel and place on it gently that will not only help the headache but it should also stop the tension in the pimple. Also if the pain is getting quite severe it would not hurt to take a paracetamol just know your limits of them since they can be potent. if you want to prevent pimples from that area try this method, every morning the moment you get up or have a shower rinse your face with water and then just lightly pat your face dry. this will open up the pores so they can breathe, and then the oil from your skin cant become clogged which then causes a pimple. I'm a male and i do it every morning and it works a charm :) Goodluck!
What is the difference between a headache & a migraine cos i am not sure which i have got ?
Most people get headaches now and then, but how do you know if it's a migraine? This is a headache in which blood vessels constrict and dilate, releasing inflammatory substances that cause painful pulsations. The mild to severe pain can last from four hours up to a week, two to four times a month. Your headache may be a migraine if you have any combination of these symptoms: Moderate to severe pain (often described as pounding, throbbing pain) that can affect the whole head, or can shift from one side of the head to the other Sensitivity to light, noise or odors Blurred vision Nausea or vomiting, upset stomach, abdominal pain Loss of appetite Sensations of being very warm or cold Paleness Fatigue Dizziness Fever (rare) Bright flashing dots or lights, blind spots, wavy or jagged lines (aura)

Can facial acne cause headaches?
If you’re looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne… prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point. For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it’s advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all. Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck. Oh, by the way the site that helped me is: http://www.acne-treatment-medicine-1.info
I have a huge 'blind' pimple or spot on the tip of my nose. How can I get rid of it?
I had this. It is a cherry angioma, a non-cancerous cyst and in my case appeared after I had dental procedure with anesthetic. After the procedure I immediately during the following days had an ear infection in both ears and a swollen lymph node infection behind the right ear. The doctor gave me drops for the ear infection that worked within a day and sent me to an ENT surgeon the same day to check for the lymph node issue.Apparently it was nothing to be worried about and that it would disappear soon. Well it did all go away after a week but a short time later I got this cherry on the nose and nothing helped, not tea tree oil which is my go-to remedy for such things or even scrubbing with baking soda, etc. etc. However, what did work is this:Take a q-tip and soak in a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar.Hold that on the cyst for as long as you can. [I had a small cup with a tablespoon of ACV that I dipped into whenever I wanted to add more]. This will dry out the contents and it will scab over. [I had a bad headache on top and at the back of my head the first day after starting this procedure.] I did prick the cyst once with a sterilized needle just a little to allow the ACV to penetrate quicker.I did this over a weekend several times a day and left the residue to dry on the area overnight. The next morning there was a scab.I washed my face with cleanser and a little baking soda to help gently exfoliate the skin and the scab.The scab was removed by this and the warm water rinse right in the shower.I repeated this again throughout the next day. More scabbing and removal took place the next day. It all took about 4–5 days.Try to concentrate the ACV to the immediate area as applying to the good skin around it could cause some damage. Apply Vaseline or coconut oil around the cyst for neighboring skin protection.Sleep 8–9 hours at night during this time to help your body cope with this. Try to remember what might have brought this on. It could be medication like I had or a food poisoning issue with perhaps restaurant food or contaminated take-out food.Drink lots of liquids - 8–10 glasses of water daily. Eat watermelon and watery fruits to help elimination and flushing of impurities.Wishing you success!

I have a pimple on my temple and it gives me a headache. Is that normal. If I touch it, the pain shoots...?
Sounds more like a boil than a pimple. A boil would give you the pain you describe.
