Could be a pimple; could be the beginings of a boil, which is a larger pimple. It might even be an infected lymph node. If it seems to be getting bigger and hurting more, he should probably see a doctor; he might need some antibiotics. In the meantime, he might try putting hot compresses on it, and keeping it as cool and dry as possible. Hope it disappears on its own soon - PJH

I think just what I said above - if it gets worse or lingers for awhile, he should see a doctor and find out what it is, and what to do about it... It's nice you're looking out for him, so encourage him to keep an eye on it, OK? PJH
