Hello. Thank you for writing to us
I an dr.kakkar(dermatologist). I have gone through your query and i have reviewed the image.
This is milium which is a superficial cyst filled with keratin. Treatment is simple. Roof of milium is puncture with a sterile needle and the cyst contents are extracted/ expressed out. I suggest that you visit a dermatologist in your region who would remove it for you.
