Pimples are notorious, painful and to get rid of one is difficult especially if it is a huge, pus-filled one. One of the most disgusting and stomach-turning and painful procedure is when you attempt to pop that nasty big ass boil on any part of the body. What’s more frightening? To capture the entire process in a video. One such cringe-worthy and gut-churning video was captured last week in Vietnam where a dermatologist punctures a pimple on a man’s head, making the pus squirt everywhere.

Filmed in Bac Lieu, the video has captured the exact moment when dermatologist Phan Ho Hoa punctures the spot, causing the pus to spritz all over. The pimple was right near the patient’s ear and when the doctor squeezes the spot, more gunk oozes out down his face. The doctor then cuts the spot with a scalpel and squeezes it some more as blood and more pus leaks out. The video is not for faint-hearted people.

The video just made us nauseous. Phan claims that the patient suffers from severe acne, which took a reported three months to remove it from the face. But why are people so obsessed with pimple-popping videos? Experts believe it is down to arousal and adrenaline, along with fear and curiosity.
