Squeezing on spots might kill you

Squeezing spots

Squeezing on spots might kill you, if you're unlucky.

You really shouldn't get rid of ones in the 'danger triangle' part of your face, according to dermatologists.

It's an area that covers part of the eyes, the bridge of your nose, the corners of your mouth and upper lip, and if exposed to infection it could cause serious consequences.

Blood vessels in this area drain to the back of your head and are a direct line to your brain - this means that any infections that develop in this area could go directly to the nerve centre.

While it is incredibly rare, if an infection was to develop it could lead to vision loss, permanent paralysis or even death.

Bursting that spot might provide you with a morsel of satisfaction but the Danger Triangle means business - so be sure to leave pimples in this area untouched.

If the urge is too much though and you do start to notice an infection, seek treatment from your doctor right away.
