A pimple grows under the skin and pushes
it out causing it to be red. It occurs
for many reasons, including dirt getting
clogged in the pores. If there is liquid
in it, it's usually an opaque white or
slight yellow. A blister occurs at the
top of the skin and results from either a
burn or from rubbing the skin too much.
It is filled with a clear liquid.
