What is a pustule?

  1. A type of scar

  2. A large blister

  3. A raised, inflamed lesion with pus

  4. A flat colored spot

The correct answer is: A raised, inflamed lesion with pus

A pustule is a specific type of skin lesion that is characterized by a raised and inflamed area with a visible pocket of pus at the center. It is not the same as a scar (A), which is a permanent mark on the skin resulting from injury or wound healing. A pustule is also not a large blister (B), which is a fluid-filled sac caused by damage or friction to the skin. Additionally, it is not a flat colored spot (D), as it has a distinctive raised appearance and contains pus. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
