Suggest Treatment For Painful Lump In The Buttocks
I have a lump a little smaller than a baseball lump on my but. Its not between my cheeks far in but on the outer side. Right where I sit. Anyway its painful I noticed it and the pain maybe 2 days ago. I ve have done anything different in the past couple months. I ve googled and it was late at night so my mind I d running wild with things it could be. I have no other problems just this painful knot. Please help.

Hello,
As per your history, it may be due to folliculitis or boil.
For that you can apply neosporin powder over it locally.
For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.
Maintain proper hygiene.
Avoid sweating.
Use loose cotton clothes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
