Lump or blockage

3 days ago looked in the mirror and saw a very obvious lump. Afte further inspection it appeared to be a blocked gland/follicle. Rightly or wrongly I squeezed it and a white waxy substance came out. The lump remained prominent but over the last few days it has gone and all that remains is a small mark. Should I be worried this is a lump that needs investigating or can I assume that now it has gone, it was indeed a blocked follicle?

  • Hello and thanks for your enquiry,

    It sounds like it was a blocked skin follicle as it has cleared up. Try and use a PH balanced cleanser wherever it was to prevent recurrence.

    Your local pharmacist is well placed to advise on skin issues and can recommend skin products to help too if needed.

    I hope this helps,

    Best wishes,
