Sore spot

My baby has a bunch of these spot all over her neck, they start small and grow big like this, I’ve been to the gp for a different issue and mentioned them and all he said was ‘kids get all sorts of skin conditions’ so not other explanation there.
It looks quite sore and she’s had 2 that have sort of been snagged off before, they don’t seem to bother her but does anyone know what this could be?

I wouldn’t be happy with this explanation. Can you see another gp? It looks a bit like a cyst / infected, but I am not a medical professional.

They look a bit like skin tags from
What I can see. Is baby overweight or do you have a family history of them?

I thought that but they have a little white spot in the middle, she’s literally 11 months old, not overweight

Ahh okay. Then if there are whiteheads, they’re probably pimples or acne. Just try to keep the area dry and pat dry instead of rubbing after a bath making sure that there’s no moisture and avoid lotions/oils etc for now. Hope it goes away soon!

they’re definitely not pimples either
