Hello,
The description provided in the query suggests that a white pimple like eruption you have is likely to be milia. It is basically a cyst filled with keratin; and is painless. It can be treated by using cautery or sterile syringe after application of a numbing cream. I would suggest you to visit a dermatologist to get it treated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
