What 𭼖 means
It names a small skin swelling. Chinese dictionaries identify 𭼖 as another written form of 痤. The Eastern Han dictionary Shuowen Jiezi defines 痤 as a small swelling; the Warring States book Zhuangzi uses it for a pus-filled sore. Japanese character records list the reading にきみ (nikimi) for this glyph. Uibang Yuchwi, a Korean medical encyclopedia, preserves 𭼖 in a line about treating nasal pimples; the compilation was completed in 1445.

1Why does 𭼖 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
