"prevention is always the best cure. The chaffing is caused from sweat and friction so you need to keep the area as dry as possible. Baby powder works, but needs to be reapplied more frequently than antiperspirant. When you are raw try flanders butt paste (no joke) It can be found in the diaper rash area. Years ago it was only available as a prescription, but it is now available over the counter "
i sweat a lot and i run a lot too and this happened ot me...try this and see if it works for u if not then see the doctor for sure.

I have one too. Usually it hurts to sit down for a long period of time and yellowish stuff comes out of it which causes my underwear to smell bad. Sometimes it bleeds after i take a dump. Recently the fluid has come out more so that when i wake up in the morning the back of my underwear is damp. Its not a bump or a cyst, its just a cut like my butt cheeks stretched out too much and made a tear in the crack.
I really hope I can find out what to do to heal it so that I dont have to worry about the smell anymore. gross.

This is a pilonidal cyst. Get it checked out by a Doctor immediately, it sounds like it has become infected. I had one for about 3 years also before I finally took action. These things will NEVER go away. Your best to just bite the bullet and seek medical attention.
Hello,
Actually I have the same thing. I have a vertical cut that looks as though someone used a razor bland and cut the skin there. It is sore and the cream that does work, (well, for me) is Baciitracin Ointment, this heals the cut so much faster. I also experience at times small cuts around the 'round brown' area. I'm sorry, I just don't know how to word such an embarrassing sympton. However, I went to the Dr and low and behold, I was diagnosied with HSV, (herpes Simplex Virus) . I could not believe it. Someone could have had a fevor blister and they can pass it along. When this occurs again, what you need to do is visit your Dr and have them look look at it, along with taking blood to see if you have the virus. 1 out of every 3 American's in the states have HSV1-2

I have been having the SAME PROBLEM. It can be very painful. I think it happens is having really dry skin and then sitting in a way that it pulls the skin apart (such as sitting on the toilet and it pulling your butt cheeks apart). I think i am going to invest in some really good lotion or cream of some sort.
To the person with the 'lump', it runs in my family to get those things. I cannot think of what they are called... a cyst of some sort... but all of my brothers got them through puberty and my grandmother, mom and aunts all got them in their pregnancies as well as myself. I actually got one AFTER childbirth too, behind the episiotomy site (it hurt worse than full blown labor and all the pain of pregnancy put together because it swelled so big that it busted my stitches). See a doctor and have it drained. It may refill and have to be surgically removed.

i ve got the same problem ever since i fell pregnant i deeloped a cut between my vagina and anus and its still there 2 years later!! sometimes its okay sometimes baaaad!!! especially when i wipe.
done some research and it may be piles which is a ruptured vessel from pressure ie my pregnancy and can lead to hemorrhoids which may explain the lumps thank god i haven't reached that point!!!!

I have the same cut between my butt cheeks, but not near my anus, and it seems to try to heal, but it forms a white thick skin, and then it starts to peel a few days later. when it peels the cut is reopened again. i got it when I fell in tub and it rip the skin between butt. It wont go away, I just need to know what type of doctor to see for it. I used the anitfungal creams and ointments but they dont work. :'(
Well here's an update for those of you you have this sort of cut closer to the top part of the butt cheeks above the anus. I had it for a few years but it didnt really bother me too much except every once in a while when it bled or leaked out gross bad smelling fluid. So I went to the butt doctor (colo-rectal surgeon). He said it was a PILONIDAL CYST. The cyst is actually buried underneath the skin and gets infected because of ingrown hairs that get lodged inside there. So what he did was went in there and dug out some hairs and packed it with gauze. It hurt a lot, but felt better and seemed to get better. But about a month later it came back with a vengeance. He said that it wouldrequire surgery to remove it. So they knocked me out and made a pretty small incision and removed the cyst. They gave me oxycodone for the pain (which can get pretty bad when trying to sit down, not to mention trying go to the bathroom), and told me to sit in a bath or have a handheld shower in the area a couple times a day and pack it with gauze. Its been about a week and a half since i got it removed and while there is occasional pain, it is not too bad and there is not any blood or stinky stuff leaking out onto my clothes. The doc said the cut should be completely healed in a couple of months and theres an 85% chance that the cyst wont ever return.
So if you have this and you are wondering what to do to get rid of it, just go to the doctor. It may seem very embarassing, but its not too bad. They look at butts all day. Just think about how much better life could be without the cyst. They knock you out before surgery, so you dont have to take off your clothes in front of everyone. And you get some nice pain pills. Just make sure you have at least a few days for recovery, because you definitely should be off your feet resting your sorry ass.
Im glad I finally went to the doctor and I wish I had gone sooner.

For most people, that is probably a result of chafing due to moisture. For the person who said they developed a bump, you may have a pilonidal cyst (if it's right at your tailbone and kind of seems like a deep/large pimple). They are pretty common especially amongst males aged 18-24. If that's the case, you should see a doc immediately because they can drain it but if it's allowed to grow larger, you may have to get surgery to remove it (if it gets too deep)!
Its probably jock which if left untreated can spread. Just went to the doctor yesterday for the same thing. Yes it will be embarrasing but believe me you will be better off, cause the can fix you right up with some anti fungal cream that can fix it with in a week or two.
I have the same problem (Referring to the cut)! It comes and goes and when I accidentally wipe it sometimes it bleeds! should I go to the Doctor because im a teenager and this is really embarrassing...I haven't even told my parents =\
Yes go to the doc ASAP. Its embarrassing but its not really that bad. I got mine removed a few months ago and it is almost completely healed and so much better now that I dont have to constantly worry about it. Just tell your parents about it... I found out my uncle had one too and it can be genetic. But DONT ignore it because trust me it wont go away on its own.
I am a teen also, my cut came and went about 3/4 times now in the past year... i dont think it's really serious (unless there is a bump) it probably just got scratched or stretched wrong and it just cuts a little... you should probably moisturize it and wash it in the shower and if it still doesnt go away tell your doctor at your next physical..
Not to be gross or anything but you can look at pictures of the pilonidal cyst online and they are much worse than a little cut.
Also you should tell your parents just incase.
