/r/popping
Subreddit for popping addicts and the pop-curious. Blackheads, pimples, cysts, abscesses, and more.
➡New Rules
Under new management and subject to change
- Be nice and observe Reddiquette. Absolutely no racism, lgbtq-phobia, bullying, sexual harassment, sexism, etc. Breaking this rule could result in a permanent, no-warning ban. This is your warning.
- NO FOOD
- Stolen content is not allowed. If you started your own YouTube channel, website or any other platform for the purpose of posting other people's videos, the post will be removed and your account banned. If you accidentally post content from a source like this we will let you know and remove the post.
- Do not ask for or give medical advice. Nobody here is a doctor, and they're definitely not your doctor. If you are a doctor, nobody here is your patient. Something a patient would ask a doctor, or a doctor would tell a patient, violates this rule. The moderators reserve the right to apply this rule as they see fit.
- Remember to flair your post. Review the rule in detail here
- Tag NSFW appropriately, no minors in NSFW posts. Also remember to use the Spoiler tag for any post involving animals.
- Get permission if you're posting a friend's face.
- Reposts are ok! Try not to repost something that was just posted yesterday, though.
- Be descriptive with your titles Review the rule in detail with examples here
- Post Wacky Wednesday content only on Wednesdays (00:00 UTC-0 until 23:59 UTC-0) Keep restricted content to Wacky Wednesdays only. Review the rule in detail here
- No comments about hygiene Please be courteous. We want people to post, but we don't want them to have to worry about being insulted and critiqued on anything but the actual pop. We welcome everyone, and we love this community, so please help us make it better.
- Insects/parasites Mark all insect/parasite posts using the spoiler option so it hides the image
- No sexual comments/harassment It doesn't seem like this needs to be said, but any sexual comments/harassment will result in a permanent ban. This isn't the sub for that sort of content.
- No soliciting fundraisers.

My husband said he felt something on his back, I was delighted to find this beauty. The actual pop was underwhelming, it came right out with almost no pressure and no cool explosion 😭
Bummed that this baby didn't explode but I did get a nice hard bump out of it the next day and it healed almost overnight.
