How To Treat A Cyst On Inner Thigh Close To Buttocks?
I had a cyst on my inner thigh near the lower part of my buttocks that I noticed this morning. I m not sure if it was there before. But I couldn t resist popping it, so I did, without ANY effort at all, it burst. But there was no puss from what I could see. It was all thick dark red blood. I may have noticed a little puss marbled into it. I cleaned it with an alcohol swab, and bandaged it up, but are cysts in this area normal? And is what I did okay?
