Swollen Pimple On Upper Stomach. Should I Worry ?

I have what I thought was a pimple on my upper stomach . but there is a tiny white bump right next to it...the pimple thing does look like a regular pimple but the little white thing is weird, and it seems pretty swollen all around the whole thing. It s a bit red on the tip of it...is this just a pimple that will go away as usual or is it something else I should be worried about?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It may be a small epithelioid cyst with milia.

It is harmless, unless infected with bacteria.

After antibiotic course, it may be excised completely.

You consult dermatologist or surgeon.

You will be alright.

I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
