How can I get rid of this ginormous cystic pimple?

I am prone to acne, but I take care of my skin really well so i rarely get bad breakouts. But in the past 2 days this pimple has come up on my forehead and just keeps growing! It's very cystic, therefore not poppable. Any ideas on how to reduce the swelling atleast?

How can I avoid breaking out after working out?

I've started running and working out a lot more recently and my skin has been showing it, especially on my forehead and chest. This is especially annoying because I don't usually get acne on my chest, and not that much on my face. Anyway, how can I stop the break outs without stopping running?

How do I get rid of acne/acne scars?

It's summer, and I'm planning to cut my hair very short than how it is now. But, under my sideburns are acne scars which were created when I popped/scratched my acne. Is there any way I can get rid of it fast? Maybe in a week or two? And how do I get rid of acne?

I have acne/acne scars through all locations on my face, but not much on my face directly. Mainly just my forehead and sideburns. HELP!

Will this work for my resistant acne?

I have several whiteheads,pustules, and papules (mostly on my forehead and between my eyebrows) that just won't go away. I am 13, and I don't wear makeup except for powder foundation. I have tried many products containing benzoyl peroxide and saliclyic acid, but nothing seems to make by breakouts any better. I thought that maybe if I use all of my products at night/in the morning, the concentration would help my acne.

I have:
Clean & Clear 3-in-1 exfoliating cleanser ( 5% benzoyl peroxide)
Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash ( 2% salicylic acid)
Clean & Clear Persa-Gel 10 ( 10% benzoyl peroxide)
Nicomide-T Cream ( 4% nicotinamide)
Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment ( 2% salicylic acid)

Please Answer!

Caracol Cream and My Thing?

Ok, this is rather embarrassing. However, it is also rather important. I recently received my Caracol Cream under a free trial offer. I would use it on my face, but I'm going to wait until after I finish my ALA/Blue Light treatments to begin. I'm only 16, and my skin is in ok shape aside from acne, and a few wrinkles on my forehead I don't like so much. I've looked at several reviews. Caracol Cream was at the top, so I'm thinking it's fairly effective.

Now onto the important part. Some of you may find this inappropriate or disturbing if not gross, but it's just medical, so please try and be of some assistance.

Anyways, when I was eleven, and I first started doing that thing... that guys do... I started off (big mistake) using shampoo. I did it twice. The first time scared the crap out of me. It left bad chemical burns that destroyed my first layer of skin (I think). After the healing, there were extensive scars and fine lines on that certain area. The second time, I used conditioner after a long time of waiting. It had the same effect. It left scars as well. Somehow, my nerves went undamaged as far as I can tell, and everything underneath the first lay of skin seems to be in good shape, but the scars make me quite self conscious

So... as you may have guessed by now, I'm wondering if it the Caracol Cream would help there, too. It says it uses an exfoliation process. Which I know means to remove the first layer of dead skin cells... this worries me. Would this potentially damage my nerves in my... thing? And would it possibly cause even more scarring?

Either way, those scars make me self conscious. And it's a scary thing to have any kind of laser surgery in that part of your body or any other methods of scar removal. the scars are more fine lines than anything, so it's not so much any scars as wrinkles and fine lines. I expect some to be normal, but most of the ones that I have I know for a fact aren't natural to have... thanks in advance.
