What Is The Reason For Two Cuts On The Buttocks And Blood Discharge, Suffering From Sacroiliac Joint Pain?
Hello I currently am suffering from sacroiliac joint pain I had gone to a chiropractor yesterday . My bottom was extremely swollen ;when he put pressure it was very difficult to handle the pain . After the process , I noticed that I had two thin cuts on my buttock one was on the actual crack and another one was on the side. I was wondering where this came from? The only thing that comes out from this seems to be like a clear liquid substance mixed with small amounts of dark blood . Is this normal ??

Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.
Presence of pain, swelling and discharge of fluid from the skin surface is definitely abnormal and warrants investigations. Propably, this could be due to an underlying infection resulting in necrotic debris collection underneath the skin layers.
Hematological parameters and radiological investigations are necessary to establish the cause of your symptoms.
I suggest you to consult a surgeon for further evaluation and management.
Hope this information is helpful. Good day
