Red Bumps On Side With White Tips, Intermittent Pain. Applied Peroxide. What Is This Rash?

On my side is six bumps they look similar to bug bites or a rash not sure they all had white tips on them and they do not itch they hurt. I get random shooting pain in that area intermittently throughout the day that s severe. I put peroxide on them and they now have what look like almost dark brown or black sort of scab type appearance on the top still red all around I do not know what they are from and I have had them a week any ideas???

Hi
They are multiple sebaceous cysts.
If they rupture and if the cyst wall is also removed,there will be no recurrence.
Peroxide will not work
Please consult a dermatologist or surgeon and get them removed.
Wish you speedy recovery
