    Those are cysts. Could be infection from either of the illnesses Carlos said. Follow DV's and Carlos' advice. Some cysts are non disease related, but must be checked in order to determine whether they are harmless or not. A Vet is needed. Use a triple antibiotic ointment on them until you can see a vet.

    Neosporin is the brand we have around here, but just go to a WalMart or pharmacy. They'll usually have 'triple antibiotic ointment' written on the tube (it's a cream), and be sure to get the kind without pain killers in it.

    I don't think that'll hurt anything but in the future, you can just use regular betadine from the pharmacy diluted in water. It's probably cheaper than getting it from a petstore.
