Pimples on the buttocks or between them is a painful, unpleasant, and common problem. The member who replied to the first post in the discussion reported having the same problem. This member also found that putting toothpaste or antibiotic ointment on pimples severely reduces them.
Did the toothpaste thing work?
According to the member who replied first, it apparently worked after he/she applied toothpaste and then covered pimples with a Band-Aid and leaving them for a day or so, which made them almost always go away.
Another participant in the discussion advised the discussion starter and others not to play with the pimples because that will only make the problem worse. This member claimed to have tried every trick in the book which left her no choice but to visit her doctor. She added that pimples made her very paranoid while having intercourse. She also suggested a couple of things that may help including exfoliating the spot with cotton to remove the dirt that has built up in the pores, avoiding sitting on hot and cold surfaces, wearing very light clothes so that the problem area can breathe, etc.
I get them, too. My doctor says that it is like a skin infection.
As this participant noted, this might be a cause. Often, the first symptoms of a staph (short for Staphylococcus) infection include the outbreak of red, swollen lesions that may look like acne pimples. So, it's better not to touch them but rather visit your doctor. The participant did so and the doctor prescribed him with Bactroban to get rid of pimples. The antibacterial ointment helped but it left scars and little holes where the pimples used to be.
Several participants noted that they got pimples on buttocks after they scratched their face, then touched their buttocks.
I've been doing some research b/c I have this problem too and found out that it is probably staph bacteria (the most common skin bacteria) and that it resides in your nose. So, if you pick your nose/rub your nose or scratch in your nose and don't wash your hands you can be spreading it to your butt.
This is a plausible explanation according to many who participated in the discussion, because staph bacteria lives in our nose, not causing any problems until it enters the body usually through the scratch or wound.
I used to get them pretty bad too but I wasn't too worried about them since my face, neck, back & shoulders had those deep pimples too. One participant noted that pimples on the buttocks went away along with the rest of his/her acne on the face, neck, back, and shoulders after he/she took a 6-month course of Accutane (isotretinoin). Other recommended keeping the area clean and dry, and using a medicated wash with salicylic acid and exfoliating particles when showering, followed by a spread of a 2 or 2.5% benzoyl peroxide cream at night.
Some participants recommended using rubbing alcohol, officially known as isopropyl alcohol, claiming that it works against pimples because it dries out the puss and infection and closes up the infected pore. However, alcohol might not be a good skincare choice for acne-prone skin
One member said that patting oregano oil on the area might help. Some studies confirmed the antimicrobial properties of oregano oil and its effectiveness against bacteria that cause acne.
What do experts say?
Pimples on the buttocks are bothersome and painful, but completely normal, meaning that nearly everyone will get pimples on the butt at some point.
The first thing that can cause pimples on the buttocks is blocked pores. Pores can become clogged on the buttocks just like anywhere else on your body.
People who have acne in other areas, such as face, chest, or shoulders often get buttocks breakouts as well. However, the vast majority of pimples on buttocks is not truly acne at all.
What causes pimples on buttocks?
Pimples on the buttocks are usually caused by two fairly common problems:
- folliculitis
- boils (skin abscesses, carbuncles)
Folliculitis is an inflammation of hair follicles, which can be caused by an infection from bacteria, yeast, or fungus, irritation of hair follicles, or blockage of hair follicles. Folliculitis presents as red and swollen bumps that can develop a white head and resemble acne pimples. These bumps can sometimes become painful or itchy.
Boils (skin abscesses, carbuncles)Bacterial infections are the most common cause of boils on the buttocks, particularly the infection with Staphylococcus aureus bacterium, which often lives on the skin or inside the nose. Skin folds, as well as areas of the body that have hair, sweat, and friction, such as buttocks, are a common site for boils. Boils present as a very large, painful pimple or a cluster of large pimples called carbuncle. Boils and carbuncles are filled with pus - a mixture of old and white blood cells, bacteria, and dead skin cells. Carbuncles are more likely than boils to leave scars. Active boils and carbuncles are contagious, which means that the infection can spread to other parts of the person's body or to other people through skin-to-skin contact or the sharing of personal items.
How to treat pimples on buttocks?
The treatment will depend on whether you have folliculitis, boils (carbuncles), or both. It is important to avoid popping or puncturing the pimple yourself, in case it's been caused by the bacterial infection that can spread to other parts of the body and lead to complications. Boils and carbuncles require medical treatment to prevent or manage complications, promote healing, and minimize scarring, so you should first contact your doctor.
In the cases of severe infection, topical antibiotics or oral antibiotics may be needed, as well as lancing and draining performed by doctor.
Some home remedies may help, in case pimples are caused by folliculitis, including:
- Warm compresses
- Washing with benzoyl peroxide body wash or bar soap
- Showering immediately after sweating
- Using exfoliating skin creams with skin-smoothing ingredients
- Wearing cotton underwear
Using toothpaste or rubbing alcohol as suggested in the discussion is not recommended. Oregano oil, on the other hand, may help dues to its antibacterial properties.
Could the pimples be a sign of MRSA skin infection?MRSA is methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, a potentially dangerous type of staph bacteria that is resistant to certain antibiotics and may cause skin and other infections. MRSA is spread by having direct contact with another person who is infected, by touching items contaminated with MRSA, or by sharing personal items that have touched infected skin.
MRSA skin infection usually appears as a bump or infected area that is red, swollen, painful, warm to the touch, or full of pus. The common sites are the legs, buttocks, groin, and back of the neck.
It is important to avoid popping the bump or draining it because it can cause infection to spread. Contact your healthcare professional especially if the signs and symptoms are accompanied by a fever.

What symptoms have been reported?

- My wife wanted to pop it day one but I didn't let her because of the pain.
- On day 3, I couldn't sit or even stand, it was painful.
- Yeah I get them quite often, they sometimes get a little itchy, and when I take a hot shower, I can feel them when lathering my buttocks, and they tend to erupt with the hot water, and pop open if I scratch them, and I know I shouldn't pick at them, but the infection is what makes them itchy, and I just want to get it out.
- They resemble a pimples shape, but generally get slightly bigger, have no pimple head to burst, and get tremendously sore at times.

- this is what I think the pimples come from, have to clean toilet seat often, with some bacteria spray like lysol or some disinfectant, AND DO NOT SIT WHEN YOU USE THE REST ROOMS IN PUBLIC places, if I do get a pimple or two, they start out by itching like crazy, I just put gold bond medicated powder on the spots, OFTEN during the day, seems to go away in a day or two.

- I feel nasty, and they hurt so bad and I can't help but squeeze them and of course it swells and gets even more red but if I keep it clean and put antibiotic cream on it goes away in a week or two.
- I had the deeper cystic type of pimple come and go, come and go, then it came and didn't go and I popped and drained it (painful + tons of Slimer stuff), then it healed.

- They look so gross and hurt.

- What i had was a pimple on my ass which was an infection and was actually really painful.
- Ok, i started getting these mosters too, it hurts when i sit or when i walk they rub on my pants.
- It hurts like hell and I'm also afraid to have sex becuz of it.

- I have the same as you it's really sore the doctor said nuffin wrong but my wholebutt and back legs are full of them
- They hurt like crazy until they pop like a zit.
Was there any diagnosis made for the pimples?
- Hi Guys, i have had this problem and have seen the doctor about it.it is staph bacteria, and sometimes a cyst might develop which means the pimple will go away but its still there internally and prone to future infection.If repeated infection occurs it is best to see your doctor who will suggest surgery to get the cyst removed.
- My doctor says that it is like a skin infection?
- It is a staph infection, my cousin ended up getting it and went to her doctor who told her it was a staph infection and they gave her meds for it, im not sure what but then they went away and she hasnt gotten them back yet.
- they said it was a staph infection.
- I have had these and they turned out to be MERSA.
- Which sucked because that meant I have a antibiotic resistant infection.
- My doctor said it was for Foliculitis, caused when staph bacteria we all have, finds a hair follicle clogged by sweat (or irritated), and travels down to the root.
- It's a deep internal skin problem, what I had, so benzoi peroxoid (is that how you spell it?) isn't enough.
- We've also ben told it's three different things because no doctor apparently knew.
- It is a skin disease.
- I know this is a year old thread but a disease you are all describing is called hidradenitis suppurativa.
- I was told it was from consuming too much alcohol and soft drinks.
- Omfg I know your pain I been getting them on my butt for awhile now they randomly started and I have no clue what they are I keep going to the doctor and they keep saying they are puss bubbles from sweat but I'm really embarrassed about them and it suck because I have holes in my butt now and i just want them to go away if anyone knows how to get rid of the scars please let me know thanks
- What i had was a pimple on my ass which was an infection and was actually really painful.
- After two years dealing with this problem I finally got my diagnosed, and I have Hidradenitis Suppurativa, it is usually misdiagnosed, so maybe tell to your Dr, this can be the cause
What medications have been prescribed to help with the pimples?
- also see family doctor and get a 5% hydrocortizone cream as well.
- what ive found that severly reduces them is to put toothpaste or antibiotic ointment on them, cover with a bandaid and leave for a day or so, they almost always go away
- The only thing eill work this out is a course called OACCUTANE it takes about 6 months and u may need more than one course same as me.
- Get some Persa-Gel 10% Benzol Peroxide cream and apply it morning and night.
- Neosporin -- the original one, not the one with pain relief -- all the way, for any pimples, anywhere.
- "StaphAseptic" First aid antiseptic/pain reliving gel.
- Tinactin Antifungal Spray.
- Iodine keeps them away, good hygiene , not sitting for public restrooms, antibacterial soap , daily showers.
- Clindamycin (Dallacin T, Cleocin T) MAY be of some use, but don't worry about this one unless you have some on hand (it's prescription).
- To pimples dab 10% Benzoil Peroxide (will bleach fabric, be careful) Or Sulfur Cream (stinks so use at night).
- They went away along with the rest of my acne after I took a 6 month course of accutane.
- I wouldn't recommend that just for butt acne though.
- The side effects sucks and it was super expensive.
- Use a medicated wash with salicyclic acid & exfoliating particles down there when showering.
- Then at night, spread on a 2 or 2.5% benzoyl peroxide cream.
- You guys need to try a Copper Serum lotion (by Dr.Pickard) for this problem it costs about $25 and you can use it on your face and other areas, and a red LED light will help also.
- I get them too:( the only sulution for me was antibiotic also I clean it everyday,no mess about with it, wash it every day, my doctor said I neef to go back to her if its come again to do some blood test but so far antibiotics and highgen
- Try a cleansing balm by Hush & Dotti.
- Antibiotics won't get rid of it permanently.
- Pus can spread infection so clean constantly with clean gauze or cotton ( I use them soaked with hydrogen peroxide).
- There's an antibacterial soap called clindagel that is sold in drugstores that helps.
- I finally had a dermatologist who knew what they were doing and prescribed me Clindagel which worked wonders;
- So I got some tissue and put on triple ointment on the hole and placed a bandaid.
- but i just put vitamin e cream or cocoa butter on it frequently or BIO OIL which gets rid of scars and stretch marks or makes them fade.
- Nothing people have suggested has worked except Hibiclens.
- It's an antimicrobial wash that you can buy at places like Rite Aid or any big chain drug store.
- Whenever I see one pop up now (mostly on the butt but sometimes on the body and arms or even legs) i clean it with hibiclens and put a bandaid on it with a little hibiclens on it.
- i read that the best way to get rid of them is to rub the spots with antibacterial stuff (i used witch hazel) and then cover it with a bandaid so it doesn't rub off on your jeans.
- unfortunately there was some scarring, but it's nothing some mederma can't fix.
- i just rubbed it with witch hazel and covered it with a band aid, it was gone within 3 days!
- this is what I think the pimples come from, have to clean toilet seat often, with some bacteria spray like lysol or some disinfectant, AND DO NOT SIT WHEN YOU USE THE REST ROOMS IN PUBLIC places, if I do get a pimple or two, they start out by itching like crazy, I just put gold bond medicated powder on the spots, OFTEN during the day, seems to go away in a day or two.
- I used dermalmd blemish serum on a giant-ass pimple that I had (guiltily) popped because it was too enormous and painful for me to deal with.
- While popping it was a mistake, using the after serum on it helped it heal within basically two days.
- The trick for that pimple was to constantly re-apply the serum, like every few hours.
- He prescribed Bactroban to put on them to get rid of them.
- I'm going to go to the drugstore and find some anti-biotic cream that kills staph and keep my hands away from my nose and see.
- i u sed this course but some acnes still on my butt so am willing to take another course.
- its expensive about 1000$ the course but u can get an alternative its much cheaper.
- A medicine called ETANE it works as the same of OACCUTANE the difference is the country and manufactured OACCUTANE is european,,ETANE is made in Syria and its muchhhh cheeper and its really effective u have to make a blood test for the liver every month or 2
- You can use any benzol peroxide cream, but I find persa-gel is the best one, because of its consistency.
- I put my proactive on it a bit yesterday and when I got dressed today I tried bamax after I got the shower I placed a little proactive on it.
- I don't know what else to try except nesporen now.
- Should I try neosporen tomorrow and place a band aid on again and just leave it and not take it off.
- My parents immediately started giving me antibiotics and rubbing neosporin on it, but the situation just got worse and on Sunday night I noticed another pimple popped up!
- All I have to do is take some antibiotics and the bump's supposed to go away.
- It's a deep internal skin problem, what I had, so benzoi peroxoid (is that how you spell it?) isn't enough.
- I have a pretty nice butt, and I think it would be gross if I got older and it was still there for guys to see:/ Right now I'm using proactiv on it, and putting baby powder on it before I go to school.
- I'll see how it works, proactiv works great when my face breaks out from the menstrual cycle (I don't have acne on my face).
- Wash affected area at least twice a day w/an antimicrobial soap (like Dial body wash) and if possible go to the tanning bed or lay out when time permits.
- Facial toners such a witch hazel with cotton wipes is a good substitute.
- Be sure to use non pore clogging soap, or use antibacterial soap.
- Mild acne product work as well, such as ones with benzol peroxide or sylicilic acid.
- Also your doctor can prescribe Erythromycin 2% to help with the symptoms, but it probably won't clear it up completely in most cases.
- take amocillin
- Pro acne killing machine, I despise it greatly.
- A dab and a bandaid overnight really reduces the swelling caused by the bacteria that irritates the skin (I usually cut the bandaid down so as little sticky parts are on them as possible, so sensitive skin doesn't decide to flare up where the sticky part comes in contact with my skin, and I wash the areas in contact with the adhesive well in the morning and apply Aquaphor to the washed areas to prevent drying).
- Not only is the pain drastically reduced, but it decreases healing time, thus getting rid of those suckers faster and reducing any scarring if you "accidentally" give in to popping them.
- It is a staph infection, my cousin ended up getting it and went to her doctor who told her it was a staph infection and they gave her meds for it, im not sure what but then they went away and she hasnt gotten them back yet.
- I also advise that you clean your hands constantly and even use hand sanitizer.
- Ive had mine drained before and yes it does get rid of all the c**p but the best thing is to take care of it as a staph infection, draining it isnt the best solution.You'll need triple antibiotic ointment or possibly antibiotic pills if its that bad.
- Grisi Sulphur Soap.
- Its a bar of soap that treats acne.
- De La Cruz 10% Sulphur Ointment.
- It also treats acne, blemishes, blackheads and the like.
- Lotrimin AF Antifungal Spray.
- Antibiotics do not fix this issue, and honestly, no amount of anti-acne stuff has done a lick of good.
- I've tried 10% peroxides, body washes, astringents, scrubs, creams and lotions - you name it.
- I start out by using the Grisi Sulphur Soap.
- It is a bar soap that you leave on for 10 minutes.
- Just in case this is an acne issue, I use the sulphur soap.
- Next, with a clean and freshly washed towel, I blot dry (no rubbing) and apply the StaphAseptic gel.
- Its a lot like Neosporin and the like, so I don't want to be sticky all day.
- Then, I use the Tinactin spray.
- Yes, Tinactin is for athlete's foot.
- Lotrimin spray is next.
- I like the Lotrimin spray because it dries to a whitish powder.
- After the Lotrimin is dry, I apply the De La Cruz Sulpher ointment.
- Sometimes I will apply the ointment before the lotrimin depending on how much time I have.
- The ointment is sticky.
- It will eventually dry but its very, very sticky.
- i then clean it with anti-zit wipes and put a little neosporin on it
- I've gone to my doctors and all they did was give me antibiotics.
- had one recently, everyone gets them once ina while, i poped mine and puss came out e_o it even made a poping sound e_e but after wards i put an antibiotic on it and then it went away, it might hurt for while after wards.
- Hey okay I am 25 years old have been dealing with assne most of my life since i can remember it comes and goes, have scars not too bad now though.I started using panOxyl wash and it did well for awhile but never totally cleared up.
- But now I have my ass better than its ever looked clear and now I am working on the scaring I have been using "The body shop"'s Tea tree blemish fade lotion @ night and during the day when i have time;
- and for pimples the tea tree oil out of the bottle, it is refreshed and moisturized while not cleaning too harshly.
- I feel nasty, and they hurt so bad and I can't help but squeeze them and of course it swells and gets even more red but if I keep it clean and put antibiotic cream on it goes away in a week or two.
- He gave me local anasthesia, sliced the zit with his scalpel, screamed 'Holy Mother!' when a ton of gunk came out, then left a piece of cloth inside to let it drain and close without a cavity.
- i have this for two weeks and the first week i tried acme wash and it started feeling raw so i stopped and this week i did nothing and left it alone.
- i put neosporen on it after it stopped and a bandaid.
- I went to the doctor and she actually gave me some antibiotic pills !
- I have the se problem since puberty n I'm now 23, what I have learned that washing the area with antibacterial soap it helps, then some tripleantibiotic helps on the thing.
- wash it really good with oil free acne wash, try to pop it(hurts a little), or just LEAVE IT ALONE!
- For those suggesting accutane, not a good idea.
- I took a long course of the accutane treatment in high school.
- Ultimately, zits that would have gone away when I graduated (or when my body chemistry changed during that period of late puberty) went away a few years before as a result of the accutane.
- 1) the accutane, in the long run did nothing to deal with these painful butt pimples, only the ones on my face.
- 2) accutane left me with severe, ongoing, and incurable stomach problems.
- Accutane is not worth it.
- If you are older and dealing with any kind of acne, my best suggestion is to stop using acne designed medications.
- Try using diaper rash ointment.
- I prefer Boudreaux's butt cream.
- Getting them cut out and antibiotics will get rid of them and the iodine and hood hygiene will keep them away
- i put on this overthecounter ointment, with is called iodinex or something like that, it will popem all!
- You will build a multifacted, long term approach to the problem, and you MUST have these items to begin: 1) Hibicleanse or Walgreen's version of chlorhexidine gluconate (we'll call this CG).
- SCRUBBING is what you will be doing, and scrubbing with CG will make the difference.
- 2) ASAP 365 Silver Gel.
- You MUST get a silver (antimicrobial) gel or other liquid, not an ointment.
- 3) Hydrogen peroxide, preferably in the spray bottle, easily available.
- You MAY add these items into the mix: Phisoderm, Phisohex, Betadine, liquid salicylic acid wash.
- Get the ASAP 365 or equivalent for sure.
- Nothing else is of any real use here, and specifically avoid Tea Tree Oil, benzyl peroxide, salicylic acid (but the wash is fine), azalaic acid, pimple solutions of all kinds, hydrocortisone, topical anti bacterial and anti fungal solutions and anything other that what I have listed above.
- No ointments or mineral oil based topicals.
- Beware of temporary solutions which are just illusions Begin by spraying the entire area with the hydrogen peroxide.
- Then coat the sores liberally with the CG;
- you can mix in some of the ASAP 365 onto the skin at this point if you want.
- Onto your brush or loofa scrubber put any of the other optional items listed above, but the salicylic acid wash is most useful as a carrier.
- Add as much CG and / or silver gel as you want at any point.
- use hydrogen peroxide or the SA wash as needed.
- Scrub for at least three minutes, using plenty of CG, and longer is better--think of the physician scrubbing pre-op.
- Now rinse the area off completely--you MUST rinse after the CG scrub.
- Finally, spray the entire area with the hydrogen peroxide again, and liberally apply the Silver Gel to the sores.
- If you have time now do another light scrub with JUST the hydrogen peroxide and the silver gel (no more CG at this point)--this is an excellent way to work the gel into the sores.
- Finish up with one more application of silver gel and let the area dry up before dressing.
- Put a liberal amount of the ASAP 365 onto the area and then you MAY coat the pad of the bandaid with the jojoba oil to soften the abrasive qualities.
- At any time during the day you can easily and quickly reapply the hydrogen peroxide and the silver gel, or at least the silver gel, without further scrubbing, and doing so is excellent;
- That's why the ASAP 365 gel is so great--it dries out and disappears while doing its job.
- Obviously there are variations to this procedure, but to make it work you MUST scrub with CG and hydrogen peroxide, rinse thoroughly with hot water and apply liberal amounts of silver gel.
- I've had the same problem but I use a special skin cream and it went away in a couple of months
- After bath - let your ass dry out properly, sprinkle some baby powder/medicated powder before you put on underwear.
- Put vaporub to make the white head come out try to leave it on 24 hours once it's more tender and not so hard use a metal pimple popper.
- throw so antibiotic ointment on it and a bandaid and you'll be good to go (: try exfoliating and mederma for scars (:
- I have taken some trebulis pills and another testosterone pill to naturally increase so I think that is what the cause must be.
- Hi nonyabiz, I too had this problem recur severally even after antibiotic cocktail treatment ( 2 antibiotics taken together).
- If you want to heal the boil faster, try using over the counter silver from cvs pharmacy.
- Use a itchthamol salve to draw pus out and then clean it and apply silver on a bandaid.

In conclusion
Pimples on the buttocks are bothersome and painful, however, completely normal. They are not acne, as commonly believed, but rather caused by either folliculitis or bacterial skin infection. Since the infection can spread and cause complications, it is important to avid popping or draining the pimples, and visit the doctor, especially if there's a fever.
