Suggest Treatment For Raised Pimple On The Skin

My 20 year old son has something strange on the bottom of his foot. It is about the size of a quarter & kind of looks like a dried cinnamon roll. It is not raised above the skin & it does not hurt. He really has no symptoms but does say he is always thirsty (drinks a gallon of H2O a day). Any ideas?

Hi,

Pimple on skin can be treated by gently washing the face no more than twice daily.

Over-the-counter (OTC) pimple treatments often contain Benzoyl Peroxide, Salicylic Acid, and Sulfur.

Prescription medication for pimples includes topical treatment, antibiotics, Isotretinoin, and laser and light therapy may also help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
