Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Pimple like lump with foul smelling material is suggestive of sebaceous cyst or dermoid cyst. It is purely benign lesion( non cancerous) you should go for complete excision of lump. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
