What Is The Hard Painless Bump On My Butt Cheek?

I have found a painless lump in my right butt cheek. About a month ago I noticed it while showering and felt it pressing under my skin. It s maybe slightly bigger than a pea and has not grown since. No pain whatsoever and feels hard and smooth when I press it. What can this be?

Dear friend,
You have a swelling over left butt cheek. As you describe, you found it accidently, it's small and painless. It needs examination for confirmation. But probable diagnosis can be sebaceous cyst or lipoma . These are benign lesions, you shold not to be worried. Ideally it needs excision biopsy for complete treatment.

Thank you.
