A feather cyst is an ingrown feather, meaning that the feather shaft has doubled back on itself, thus failing to push through the outer skin. You can release the trapped feather shaft by taking a sharp tool like an Xacto knife or razor blade and making a small incision in the center of the "pimple".

I'm not able to verify that you are dealing with a feather cyst, though. Your photos are not clear enough.

Thanks for responding! I made a video with a more clear viewing of what is happening but can’t seem to upload it here - can I email it to you please?
