• Are white pus boils on my face acne or something else?

I am getting small painful boils on my face. Would these be considered as acne or is it something else?

Likely acne, but need to consider a bacterial folliculitis.

Acne consists of whiteheads and blackheads (comedones),Ted papules, pus pimples, and cysts.
