What Does A Painful Lump On Buttocks Indicate?
I have a painful lump on the right side on my buttocks just inside the crack. I ve had it once before and used iodine on it to help it go away. Surgery is not an option for me as I do not have insurance. What exactly can I do to get rid of it. I cannot function like this?
