What Causes Frequent Pimple In Child?
My 8 yo grandson had a small pimple come up between him thumb and index finger it developed a black dot in the center and turned into a blister. The bluster burst and it drained a clear liquid, scabbed over and left a shiny circle the size of a nickel. He now has another close to the same spot and one on on the outside and inside of his lip. No itching or pain.

Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
when the pimple bursts, the fluid can infect nearby skin
Better to start him on local ointments like clindamycin for a week.
Wishing your child speedy recovery
