Examination needed: You should schedule an appointment with your physician to have this looked at, at age 26 most individuals no longer have adolescent acne. This could be a severe infection that requires an antibiotic. An examination and a bacterial culture may be helpful in making a diagnosis. You may also want to schedule a consultation with a dermatologist.

See a dermatologist: These are very large to be a acne lesion unless you are describing clusters. Lesions of this size come from a variety of causes and should be investigated.. The derm can distinguish acne from an auto immune situation from infections. In the mean time cleanse them in warm soaks with and make an appointment.
