How long has it been there? Sometimes if I get a cyst like spot on my chin it won't go away for at least a month! I recommend using something with tea tree oil in though, that always seems to help me.

Has it turned into a cyst? I often get what starts out as a normal pimple that end up sticking around and turning into a cyst. They can stay for weeks! I get them injected with kenalog (cortisone). It sounds awful but it works wonders..within a couple of days its completely gone.

A cyst is like a hard lump under the skin that doesn't come to a head, it's still a type of spot though and it's nothing to worry about. I get cystic acne on my chin and they can take months to go away, it's a pain! I use a tea tree face wash and spot stick from the body shop, which seem to help me.
