What Causes Pimple On Chin?

I had a cyst-like pimple on my chin that popped over a month and a half ago. In its place is a hard white protruding scab. I ve had it injected with cortisone as the dermatologist thought it might have been the aftermath of a pimple that didn t heal properly. However, two weeks after the injection, nothing changed. Any ideas as to what this might be and how I can get rid of it?

Ayurveda Specialist,  's  Response
Scab is a hard coating on skin formed during wound healing.

My experience about my other patients on such conditions have been to give Kanchnar guggul tablets with milk. There should be little turmeric powder in a glass of hot milk. Twice a day.

Locally, DAESHANG LEP - a coarse herbal powder may be applied over this scab, by mixing the powder in clarified butter and few drops of water, to make it dough like consistency. Stick it to chin and let for maximum time. Do twice a day for few days. See the response and respond back in two weeks for further needful, if any.

Hope it helps.
