I was thrilled to find a ‘gorgeous’ ring while thrifting – but everyone thinks I should call Dr. Pimple Popper
A THRIFT store shopper was thrilled to show off her bargain jewelry find, posting a photo of her bejeweled ring on Facebook.
But horrified commenters were quick to point out that her bling looks unsettlingly similar to a bursting blemish.
The unidentified woman shared the image of the boil-like bauble in a thrifting group.
"Look what I found!" she proudly exclaimed, showing the ring on her own finger.
It features a silver-colored setting with pavé stones topped with a single large pink pearl.
"Looks like there's a stamp of 14k but barely there. I wonder if it's worth anything! But it looks gorgeous," she wrote.

Commenters begged to differ.
A screenshot of the post was soon shared in the Facebook group "That's it, I'm ring shaming," where critics insisted that the ring looks like a zit, a cyst, or some other skin growth filled with pus.
"Looks like a blister ready to pop," wrote one.
"That is a dang cyst if I've ever seen one," said another.

"I seen that on Dr. Pimple Popper, she removed it from someone," insisted a third.
"Looks like a pimple breaking through the skin," yet another observed.
One more wrote: "That looks like a cyst at its best angles."
Others said it looked like a prolapsed uterus, a nippled, a hernia, and a "bubble gum fart preserved."
Previously, the group mocked a woman's "horrendous" stack of rings, which she added to on every special occasion.
Another couple's engagement photo featured an opal ring, but commenters were more struck by what was going on with the groom's hand.
