Why my face???? I took Paulapoo's advice and slept with a cotton ball soaked with peroxide held with a band aid overnight and it seems to have shrunk it a bit and looks less inflamed. I'll be very careful not to pick at it and I'll watch for infection. It's about the size of a dime right now. I'll keep you posted. I will go to the doctor if it appears to be getting worse. Thanks for all your help. The staph infection possibility does scare me. So I will be careful.
