Mystery Chest Bumps… Skin colored… Not acne… Not itchy… Not painful… HELP!?

For years I have had bumps covering my entire chest... every pore. I have mild acne with occasional pimples and blackheads on my face, chest and back. I have very oily skin. The bumps in questions are small, not itchy, not flaky, not inflamed, not painful and they are skin colored. They only go away if they are squeezed... but they aren't full of puss or blackhead stuff... they have a white/yellow thickish pastey substance in them. They don't come to a head like a pimple. And they always come back every time in every spot. They don't respond to acne treatments. A few of these bumps are larger and fill up with a good amount of the thick substance. I can squeeze the stuff out, but it comes back in a day. Then I have these other bumps that are somewhat hard, round white balls under the skin and they can't be squeezed. A few of these I have poked with something sharp and the white thick substance was able to be squeezed out.

What could this be??

Skin question?

Hi!!!
My skin isin't too bad but I always get zits on my forehead and I tend to like pick at them and stuff which just makes them worse obviously!! But I used to use Oil-Free acne wash mask scrub from neutrogena, Pore unclogging scrub from Cvs, and this really good brevoxyl cream wash that my sister got fromm her dermatologist. I didn't have a schedule with them or anything but Imostly just used the oil-free acne wash mask from neutrogena, then my chin started to dry out really bad and it itched and hurt, so I stopped using the products for a few days so my skin wouldn't be dry anymore. Then my face started to break out again and so I started to use the product again and the skin on my chin started to dry out and itch again, and it seems to do this with any acne wash. So I just started to use this clean and clear advantage acne spot treatment that isin't suppose to dry skin and it says 100 percent of ppl had results in just one day. Hold on I will write the rest in the details!! kk!!!
so I started to use jergens natural glow skin moisturizer and I just keep applying this clean and clear advantage spot treatment! Do you think my skin will clear up and not dry out!! Thanx!! I know I had alot of info but thanx for reading!!

CYSTIC ACNE HELP PLEASE?

look, i hate acne just as much as the rest of us, but thanks to my parents wonderful genes, i have cystic acne, and its really not bad anymore, but sometimes i get these cycst-like pimples that WILL NOT GO AWAY and they are so f***ing embarrassing, because they're so deep that they cant even really be covered up. theyre like little hills, and even having one is just absolutely disgusting. does anyone else have this issue? im not talking about the kind of acne you can pop and et rid of, and surface treatments like proactive dont work, because these are deep in the pore. does anyone have any advice on how to get rid of these a little bit more quickly? waiting on these takes weeks sometimes, even when i wash my face a ton and exfoliate. thank you and God Bless!!

how do I get rid of a pimple under the skin?

Okay, so I hardly ever get acne, I never break out, and I never have had any problems with my skin OTHER than this- Very, very, very occasionally, I get those pimples under the skin that hurt really bad that don't show up, you can just feel where they are, and they're really tempting to try and pop but if you do it leaves a scar. I don't have the money to pay for a prescription and I need to get rid of this thing on my chin. It really hurts. Also, I know it's not nodular cystic acne, because that is the most severe. Are there any home remedies that I can do that will allow me to at least open up a pore? PLEASE HELP!

Irritated skin on nose from acne?

I accidently picked off a scab on my nose (didn't know it was a scab, thought it might've been dried blood or something). I got the scab when I got a blackhead out. Now that I've picked it out, theres a rough pink spot about the size of a pencil eraser around the pore. How do I make it go away fast?
