HELP ASAP! Painful zit? I cant sleep!?

Okay. So I am a face freak so I take very good care of my skin. I am a teen
so my face isn't flawless, I get a few zits here and there. My skin is well above
average. I woke up with a HUGE zit on my forehead. As the day went on, it got more
and more painful. It started throbbing and its really sensitive to just tapping it. It doesn't
have a head yet. It was just big and red. A cousin of mine looked at it and told me it would
get white soon.

So now I am home, and I want to go to bed. I am trying to go to sleep. I cannot sleep!
It hurts to put my head on my pillow. I did a little bit of research and I learned that you should
put hot water on it so it can form a head and then pop it. I just did that and its sorta formed
a small head. I tried to pop it, BUT I BROKE DOWN INTO TEARS because it hurt so bad. I have never had a zit this painful or big. I can't pop it because it hurts. Its throbbing as I type this. I have products that I can use, Im going to list them.
1. I have hot water for the treatment
2. Apricot acne scrub
3. Neutrogena pink grapefruit acne wash
4. Neutrogena on the spot acne treatment
5. Oil of olay moisturizer
6. Oil of Olay night cream
7. I also have tooth paste, and Clearasil on the spot treatment

Anything I could do with what I have to help? Should I just pop it even if it hurts? Maybe sterilize a needle? I dont have school tomorrow since I am on vacation....Its just the pain that wont even let me sleep! Please help!!!!! Every answer helps me!
