What Could A Lump On Butt Cheek?
My wife has a lump inside her left butt cheek. She s told me that she s had it for as long as she can remember but I find that worrying. It s quite large and has a black dot in it s center. It is around 1cm big. Any advice as to what it could be? She tells me it is completely painless

Hi,
This may be a sebaceous cyst. If it is not causing any pain then it can be left alone. If pain develops then this may indicate infection and she would need antibiotics.
