A pimple is a type of skin lesion caused by inflamed and/or obstructed pores. The most common cause of pimples is acne, but other causes, such as smallpox, exist.

Often, pimples can be eliminated or relieved by pressing inwards and downward on both sides. This pops the pimple and removes the internal pus.
