r/popping

I have a blockage that needs emptying every now and again. Forgot about it and left it too long.

Never seen it like this before. Normally it’s silly string but thinner and shorter.

I was expecting more like the big booger at the top of the napkin, then this thing came out!

Did anyone else look up to their wall/ceiling to see where it landed? Nope, me neither 👀

thank you to reddit for teaching me these annoying things can just be removed from your tongue so the pain stops instead of waiting days or weeks for it to go away on its own.

Not OC. Found in r/firstaid. This one is a doozy.

Not sure if this fits the sub

Mini pops from ear crevice.

I thought my ears were clean until I looked in the nooks and crannies

Found this beauty on my girlfriends back

Had to use multiple methods but finally got this ear pimple popped. Thought there might be more but after 2:25 not really anything. Sorry if your volume is up.

The past few weeks I’ve been feeling this beard hair on the side of face at the bottom of my chin. It gradually got thicker and was growing slowly after I shaved. It felt like a small pimple around it. I couldn’t stop picking at it because it didn’t feel right. I finally couldn’t take it anymore so I started yanking on it with tweezers and slowly pulled this thing out. The ‘balls’ were inside and had some resistance before it popped out leaving a small hole in my cheek. It is exactly as long as you would expect with thick facial hair growing for a week including the follicle. Cleaned it, and started squeezing this thing to see wtf it was with my first thought thinking it was a thorn or metal. It is extremely dense and I couldn’t even pinch it in half with my finger nails or crush it on the counter with my nails. Anyone know what this is and if it is an ingrown hair or keratin cast shaped like my follicle? It definitely was a weird experience.

There was a lot of puss before i took the video. You could see it in my other post. I get these every now and then but its rare. This was located at my bra line and has been rubbing so bad.

I stopped recording because it hurt so bad and nothing more was coming out besides blood.

Tiny but it hurt like a motherfluffer, and stayed swollen for a day

I got checked out from the PA for possible infection it wasn't one but just dead skin and flesh. I'm perfectly fine now and on the road to a full recovery in the foreseeable future.

Staying with family in Iowa a few weeks ago, my 7 yo described finding two growths on a maple in the yard she described as looking like bubble gum. Looked it up, and was fairly certain it was Wolf’s Milk (Lycogala epidendrum*), “*a cosmopolitan species of myxogastrid amoeba which is often mistaken for a fungus.” The highly scientific method of poking with a stick proved my suspicion correct.
