Thanks for asking,
You are suffering from trichostasis spinulosa. It is a condition where hair does not come out of their follicles and gives a picture of black head.
While squeezing you won't get any material coming out of it.
Use 2% salicylic acid face wash to get rid of it. If it doesn't clear with this you need microdermabrasion sessions for it.
Regards
