Squeezing a spot is all too tempting most of the time.
However, this one woman certainly wished she left her chin pimple alone.
Having had it grow on her face for a year and a half, Tyla Brim decided it was time to rid of the pesky addition.

Instead of banishing the pimple, the influencer's chin swelled up and left her looking like Buzz Lightyear.
In a TikTok clip that racked up over 1million views, Tyla explained her spot popping ordeal.
"Popping my 1.5 year old 'pimple'", she titled the video.
As she covered her chin with one hand, Tyla warned: "No, because if you ever have a pimple and you're not actually sure if it's a pimple but you really want to pop it my advise is – don't.
"I have just spent the last 24 hours in excruciating pain because what I've done to my chin.
"About a year and a half ago I started noticing a little 'pimple' that was on my chin. Never really a head, something a bit deeper into my skin.
"I thought it would go away or I'll pop it when it's ready."
Tyla added that she also had some chin filler around the same time and believed the pimple was the in the same place as to where the injection was made.
Instead of having a go at it then, she decided to just ignore it and hoped that the spot would go away by itself.
Fast-forward to nearly two years later, Tyla thought it was time for the squeeze.
After having spent a night battling the spot, she woke up the next morning to it appearing yellow in colour.
Although she feared that it was infected, the TikToker gave it yet another go to the point she gave herself a bruise.
"At this point I'm embracing it, it's giving Buzz Lightyear, to in chinity and beyond", she quipped.
Despite her new alter-ego, Tyla shared that the spot got "worse" and puffier".
The influencer then revealed the red and swollen area on her chin.
"This does not even capture how painful it is", she remarked.
Tyla shared a before and after snap of what her face looked like just 12 hours apart where she claimed "it doubled in size".
Since the beginning of the squeezing incident, Tyla and her boyfriend attempted to drain the pimple with the force of cotton buds.
But, it still would not budge as she noted the area on her chin was "solid".
Tyla eventually made her way to the GP and was prescribed a course of antibiotics as she had contracted an infection.
"I am a literal IDIOT Learn from my mistakes and don’t do a DIY pimple extraction", she urged.
Shocked at the pimple popping drama, many people fled to the comments to wish Tyla the best – and some even related.
One person commented: "OMG WHAT."
Another user giggled: "To chinfinity and beyond."
While a third related: "Glad I'm not the only one that gets these."
Someone else said: "Oh noooo! I hope it heals very fast."
Meanwhile, a fifth person questioned: "Why did you keep going to pop it when it just kept getting worse?"
