What Does A Painful Spot On The Buttocks Indicate?
My husband has a large spot on his butt, that looks like a boil. It is 3-4 wide and hard and painful. 2 inches of it is hot pink and very warm to the touch.There is no white on it and the center is black and got bigger overnight with no drainage. It s very painful. We havebeen putting antibiotic cream on it and hot pads. What should we do?
