What Causes Painful Bumps On Buttocks?
My granddaughter is 7 she has been getting these bumps on her buttocks, at first I thought it resembled staff, but her doctor said they are warts and that she caught it from using public restrooms. .The bumps get large and painful and full of pus, then they pop.

Welcome to HCM
These bumps are due to infection of the skin mostly caused by a group of bacteria called staphylococcus.
A full course of oral antibiotics is very much required.
Use T-Bact ointment for local use.
Basic hygienic habits like bathing perfectly and regularly, washing her clothes neatly and separately should be followed.
This bump can reccur again if these measures are not followed.
Take care.
