Can Cyst Or Tumor Be Related With Balls On The Buttocks?

Hi , I am brandon and I am 20 years old. Some time ago I found a small round ball on the lower of my butt. After about 6 months I noticed it got bigger. About 5 years ago i was diagnosed with a giant cell tumor on the lower part of my back. Can this be a cyst or a tumor ?

Welcome at HCM
I appreciate your health cocnerns..
Based upon the history provided , it is difficult to comment. In my opinion the lump need to be examined for clinical conclusion. It should be looked for the size, consistency, overlying skin and drainage lymph node .
After then we can proceed further. Biopsy will confirm the diagnosis but it should only be performed after clinical examination.
Meet your sugeon
Hope it helps
