Probably not: It could be a boil or sebaceous cyst or abscess . Need examination to confirm the diagnosis .Please consult your doctor.

Need to examine: The lesions may also be due to herpes, in addition to other opinions expressed, and it would be prudent to see your doctor. If you have not traveled out side the US, parasite can be ruled out. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
