Red And Swollen Bumps, No Scars. Concerned About Swelling

I keep getting pimple like bumps with red swelling around them. They form a white head that pops later and seems to eventually heal. However, I am not sure if they ever fully heal or leave a scar . The swelling has me the most concerned. There are also several smaller red bumps (like smaller pimples ) that have not progressed, but linger.
