Red Spot On Neck, White In The Centre, No Itching. Taking Lipitor. Cholesterol Deposit?

hello I have a small red spot on my neck . It is raised, a little. It doesn t itch and isn t painful. I have had it for a week now. It looks like the center is white. Also, under my eye , under the tear duct area I have a white patch of raised bump. Like a cholesterol deposit. I am on lipitor . Could it be anything besides a cholesterol deposit? Do you need more information?
