Hi, 

I'm looking my right arm and on the bicep, I have this pimple, It looks a white head. OK so it been on my arm for a few months now, I really don't know how long. I had two one smaller than the other. The smaller one now, you can barely even see.

I'll post a picture. It doesn't hurt at all in the slightest. I did start Jiu jitsu in May, and I think this 'pimple' appeared in August or July. Could it be staph? 

I have no past medical history of anything. But I am online and reading that it might be some type of cancer. Melanoma or basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma? 

THIS is a close of it. It does not look that big in person. 

Thanks, 
Jb 

I will be going to the dermatologist soon to see what it is, but am just getting worried. Don't know how long an appointment wait will be.

Have you tried squeezing the pimple out? Might be a small acne cyst.
