PS: the conglobata started w/ one big cystic cyst about the size of a quarter and was puffed out about 1cm..lol..and then day by day my forehead was taken over and a lil of my temple area and side burn area...oh..and one more think...haha..wen i get stoned w/ my friends i cant do it just CHILLIN and layin around stoned cuz i try so hard to keep my hair from moving around so it wont reveal the scars....man....yea..haha..

I believe I have the same thing. I'm taking anti-biotics, putting on various medicated creams, wash myself constantly, and they still won't get off my back! I feel your pain.

sucks doesnt it thcbongman? mine was on my face so it was hard enough just to wash my face..bcuz if i did it a lil too hard...it would rip or pop and alot annd i mean ALOT of pus and blood(i know, sick) would come out and that didnt bother me...what did though was the sharp pain it came with...and at nights when i slept...i would wake up with a poped one or damaged one...life was bad and hard 24 hours a day and 7 days a week

hey man, just cut your hair and dont even worry about it. smoke a joint and think about it until your pumped with confidence. theres no reason for anybody to give you shit unless therye completley worthless assholes, in which case you can laugh at them for being so ignorant about life. people like that are soooo fucking stupid, theyre insecure about themselves, so they need to find inferioritys on everybody else. besides, eveybodys got something to be shy about.
i used to have a lump of skin above my left eye but got it cut out last year.

theres alot of assholes out there,, and you've just gotta accept it.

Don't worry man, 9 times out of 10, you will grow out of them as you get older. I had a decent problem with it as a younger teen, and now that I'm nearing 20, it's hardly a problem. And trust me, I thought I would never get rid of them, so you're not alone. Stick in there and see a dr. if you haven't already so you can get the best meds out there.

One love!

Shaving must be a bitch..most of mine occurs on my back, but once a while, a one pops on my face and I don't even notice till I shave. That's when it scars badly. It sucks!

It pops when I lay down, sit in a chair, or do sit-ups. Sucks. Life is kinda challanging this way, especially when you are trying to get laid, and they see your naked back...

I hope your right plant, I never had pimples until I was 20, and I'm almost 23, and I don't see the light!

i got them early, but ive learned how to keep it from getting bad. i wash my face about 3 times a day, use soaps and creams, and i eat healthy. some people dont realize this, but junkfood is really bad for acne

Dude! Cut that hair. Do everything you can to clean it up. People will always stare but those people are dumb asses.

This board is great for outting your problems. Once I said I was a chronic masterbater. Heh heh. Anyway once I admitted it, I felt great and was able to leave myself alone. Haha.
