Brief Answer:
Epidermoid cyst or milia, not looking like molluscum

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to ask a doctor service
I have gone through your query and reviewed the attached photograph though it’s not very clear.
It seems to be an epidermoid cyst or milia.
Its not looking like a molluscum contagiosum.
I would recommend you to consult a dermatologist and get it removed either surgically or by radio frequency ablation.
It is a minor office procedure.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
