Brief Answer:
comedones

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query and photographs,
These bump like lesions are called as comedones.
These are in fact initial stage of acne.
If you control these at present stage,it will not become severe acne.

Please apply Adapelene gel (Nilac AC) in night and Clindamycin gel (Faceclin ) in morning.
Do this for a month, you will get relief from these bumps.

Let me know if you have any other doubts,
Thank you
