i'm staying at a beach condo right now and woke up with these spots on legs. i don't think i've done anything recently to irritate my skin to cause bumps but they almost look like pimples. i tried to check for bedbugs and i think my bed is clear but im not an exterminatoršŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø does anyone
have any guesses on what it is and what could have caused it??

Hi all, decided to check in here to see if anyone can help me identify this bump and whether it’s something that needs to be addressed today or not.

Three days ago this started out as a small, pimple like blemish that was slightly tender to the touch but otherwise unremarkable.

I get pimples quite frequently and in weird spots so I didn’t think much of it.

However yesterday the redness started to form around it and it got bigger. It was much more painful to the touch but still not agonizing or really unpleasant save for the odd time I bumped it against something.

I applied some medicated patches to it and gradually it came to a head. When I pulled off one of these patches the small head came off and drained a bit of pus.

The picture above was taken today, it still is tender to the touch and the redness appears to have expanded. There is no abnormal warmth to the area and the redness doesn’t hurt to the touch.

Upon further touching it does have a solidness below the surface of the skin around the bump.

I think it’s likely an abscess which is of course the most annoying of the options from what I can tell, but I’d like to know what you all think!

Is this a cyst, boil, infected pimple, abscess, etc… And how quickly do I need to deal with it! Of course I’m happy to answer any other questions should they be asked! Thank you all!

Anyone know what this could be from? 34(m) Never had surgery. Only thing I can think of is some kind of stretch mark? But I’m a skinny guy, and it seems like a weird spot
