Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your complain you have problem of white pimples all over the body that may be because of any viral infection or other condition. Physical examination of this lesion is helpful for further diagnosis. Complete blood cell count and examination give exact idea. Don't pinch a lesion because that one may be infectious. Consult a physician for further diagnosis.
I hope my guidance helpful to you. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Rachana Goswami
