Boil or pimple?: White head represents boil or pimple or infected cyst of some sort. We recommend heat/warm compresses for (possible) infections and cold/ice packs for injuries. Better yet, draw a line around the bump/redness. If it doesn't resolve within a day (or extends beyond the line), take her to see her Family Doc or Pediatrician.
