Hi i have just discovered a slightly large white spot on my knee and it is inside a red square and that square is surrounded by another large square.

Pustule: White spot associated with surrounding redness sounds like an abscess.

Hard to say?: Don't know the size of the lesion. Is it hot, tender, swollen, any streaking - any pus? This would require visualization at minium to determine the diagnosis.
