What Causes Painful Blister Filled With Fluid On Buttocks?
I have a very painful lump on the bottom inside of my butt cheek. previously thinking it was a painful pimple i attempted to drain it which just made it worse. It has appeared to become a little larger and because i broke the skin also has an open wound. It is very painful to sit and walk and it very tender to the touch. I have continued to clean it daily with an antiseptic wash, put antibiotic ointment on and it covered it with a band-aid. It does not appear to be infected but it is definitely red and very sore, but i assume that is because i am having to put pressure on it throughout the day. My question is if it is a cyst should i wait until the wound is healed before i attempt to put a warm compress on it?
I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..
As per your complain it seems that a painful lump that you had on the the butt cheek seems to be most probably a Perianal abscess and as you popped it, it has become an open ulcer that is severely inflamed and is leading to severe pain and pressure..
As it is red and sore and had pus it is infected and you need to take a proper antibiotic regimen for relief..
You should consult a General Physician and get evaluated and he can do a clinical examination and advise you medications like a combination of Sulphamethoxazole and Trimethoprim and also anti inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen.. You can also be advised to clean the area with betadine solution and apply an antibiotic ointment along with a steroid ointment over it.. plication of numbing gel can help in reducing pain and pressure..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
