I have a white pimple like thing on the middle of my upper lip. i t hurts really bad. i tried to pop it with a needle but nothing. what can this be?

Epidermal cyst: Probably a small epidermal cyst, which may have ruptured, causing inflammation, or it may be infected (because you tried to pop it). Either way, you should let your doctor or a dermatologist look at it, to determine if it should be drained and/or removed.
