I have a hard spot on my skin from more that 4 years. It's the size of a pimple but has a black spot in the center (looks like something stuck inside it which force the skin around to be hard) I don't know what it is and it doesn't even hurt. But i'm curious about it because I have a medical test ind the airforce in few months.

They usually develop when shed skin cells move into your skin instead of falling off. Epidermoid cysts can also form when hair follicles become irritated or damaged, due to a buildup of keratin.
