First picture is infected sebaceous cyst. And in second picture infection has subsided and just cyst is there.
Surgical excision is the treatment.

This is a Sebaceous Cyst. Its a small, slow-growing, non-cancerous bump beneath the skin. Sebaceous cysts may develop as a result of trauma or blocked glands in the skin. Sebaceous cysts rarely cause pain or other symptoms. They're most commonly found on the torso. This has to be removed surgically. Consult a Dermatologist for the same.
