Small Bump On Lip, Popped It, White Discharge, Brown Lining Around Area, Lump Formed On Back. Suggestions?
Hello, For about a year now I have had a small bump on the upper lining of my lip. It is not red, it does not burn , itch , or tingle. Recent I decided to try to pop it but only came out as small white stuff, but now I have brown lining around the small area. I have been using rubbing alcohlol and appying triple antibotic ointment it looks like the brown lining is healing but the small bump isnt going away. And now a medium raised bump has formed on the right side of my back, I didnt even know it was there until i felt it today, Please help what could this be.

It appears to me that it may be molluscum contagiosum. Dont remove on your own. Go to a skin specialist and get it removed by electrocautery method.
