HI,Dear,Welcome to HCM.
Based on the facts and data of your query,You seems to be have Boil -caused by the infection of the frictioned bum area.
The bruise is first caused by the friction,which gets infected to cause a boil in the hairfollicle of the bum region.
Second opinion from Surgeon would fix your diagnosis.
Dont' worry as it is not Cancerous and can be treated with medicines and antibiotics / painkillers.
A regression after the medicines would prove that it is not cancerous.
Hope this reply would help you to resolve your sever anxiety.
Welcome for any further query in this regard.
Will appreciate writing your feedback review comments,to help the needy patients like you at HCM.
