I'm not sure. I've had one inside my ear, not really inside lol but in between the cartilage and the entrance of the ear. it was their for a while, it wouldn't go away, i took a q-tip and keep't poking it until it popped. and then i had to do that like 2 more times. it was painful. You could try that, but be very careful. Just try poking the actual pimple softly with the needle, just enough to break the skin open slightly, and then play with it. That should be the end of it. :--]

Your money situation is relative considering the options. You need to make better decisions in the future or else heavy regret will set in.

    Go to a trained dermatologist and have them lance it. Next time decrease the glycemic index in your diet.

    edit: do NOT follow ☜♥Mimi♥☞'s "advice." Unless you are a properly trained surgeon and know how to effectively sanitize medical instruments, will WILL develop an infection which can easily spread to other areas, giving you the misfortune of an emergency room visit - which you will have to pay out of pocket for, and thus also deal with higher health insurance premiums, assuming you have coverage.
