The pimple on my hip was a large whitehead that hit right at my beltline - it hurt like hell, so I popped it to help it go away. It was exactly like every other normal pimple I'd ever had anywhere else, and the inflammation went down almost immediately. I disinfected it, covered it, and it seemed to mostly go away. (The redness stayed, but I didn't check it every day - most pimples leave a red mark on me for 3-4 weeks, so this was nothing new.) Today I realized it was back so I went to pop it again, but instead of finding pus inside, I found a hard, white interior that I couldn't get out (I didn't try very hard, it started to feel a bit like surgery & I immediately backed off). It looks nothing like any kind of rash otherwise, or an infection, parasite, etc. I am fair skinned and have gotten some sun in the past, but never on this area of my body (I stay covered on my torso 100% of the time), so skin cancer in that area seems strange. What else might this be?
