What is the difference between a blood-filled pimple and a regular pimple?

Regular pimples form when skin pores get clogged with dead skin cells, oil, dirt or sweat. Bacteria and pus collect in the clogged pore, causing it to swell into a bump. A pimple can be a singular blemish or part of more widespread, frequent breakouts, called acne.

A blood-filled pimple looks like a pimple, but it’s filled with blood. Blood-filled pimples tend to look more irritated and inflamed than regular pimples. And they’re more likely to lead to infections and acne scars.
