You can remove a particular block cache by using below code,

<reference name="needed block">
    <action method="setCacheLifetime"><s>0</s></action>
</reference>

or

<reference name="needed block">
    <action method="setCacheLifetime" />
</reference>

OR from backend:

goto -> admin -> dashboard -> System configuration -> cache management -> disable for block.
