Hi, few days ago I felt pain on my butt cheek while I was sitting. When I looked for the source of the pain, I noticed a little lump. It is red and I can feel it under the skin. Did it happen to anyone else?
I have a lump inside my butt cheek for several weeks, and it won’t go away. I was applying some medical creams, but they didn’t work. The lump is hard, painful and red. First I thought it was just a big pimple, but a pimple would disappear long time ago. It’s a little embarrassing because it’s exactly inside my butt cheek, so I can’t see a doctor about this problem. My hygiene habits are excellent, so comments on this subject would be unnecessary. It crossed my mind that many hours of sitting in my office could be the reason for this lump. Maybe the sitting has worsened my circulation and caused a lump.
me too...same condition. Do you have a skinny (non-existant) butt? Because, the hip/rear bones put pressure on my butt when I sit, causing this "pimple" hard like annoyance. I think that's the problem. So, I sit on cushions all the time, not directly on wooden/hard chairs.
SOUND LIKE IT COULD BE AN ABCESS OR CARBUCKLE
I have it too. just on the inside of my butt cheek but im only 16 and still go to school. although i do sit on hard wooden chairs all day and have a flat bum, it shouldn't affect someone that quickly should it??
Hard, painful, have some colors lump on your butt cheek are probably an abcess or it could be a cyst. If it have pus in it, then it is an abcess, and it need to be treated by antibiotic
I have the same problem on my butt. It is hard, and it pops once in a while. As soon as it forms again, i cant sit down cuz its soft and sqishy. If anyone has this problem, please contact me on how to relieve it. XD
i know just what your going thru, i have an abcess right this min. and am on atibiotics, the antibiotics will clear it up for about 2 mo. then it will come right back, my dr said the only way to get rid of it for good is surgery,,
Um, Hi. I have had one of these lumps you speak of for a few years now, it went away about 2 years ago, but came back about 1 year ago. well, word to the wise, I wouldn't recomend trying to pop it or burst it. It is very painful and the inside of mine was a white/red tissue of some kind, about 2 in H x1 1/2 in L x 1/2 in D. if anyone knows if this "thing" is cancerous or otherwise harmful outside the pain and huge blemish pls let me know..
Thanks

It is a pylonidal cyst. I have one too, and haven't treath it for a while, because I don't have the time for the surgery. Surgery is the only thing that will get rid of it. I had mine drained about a year ago and with medications it was sort of gone, however it requires surgery for complete removal.
The main causes for this are besides of needing extra hygiene, riding horses, and long periods sitting. Also in most of the cases a single hair from the area is the source as it craves into the skin and prevents the skin from sweating.
Don't let it just there, and don't be ashamed, a huge quantity of persons get it in certain moment of their lifes. And it certainly can become cancerous if you let it be there.

I had one as well about the size of a quarter. It was semi-hard, but clearly liquid filled. I just squoze the sucker and I heard it pop and drain. Has been reducing in size ever since. OK now.
I also have a lump inside my bum cheeks. I read this thread and got a bit freaked out. I went to see my doctor the following day as the thought of surgery is pretty frightening. I'd rather accept the embarrassment of showing the doc my bum than worrying about something that could be easily fixed. My lump turns out to be a small pile (Piles) which is basically a burst blood vessel. This can be treated by applying some steroid cream to reduce the swelling. Apparently it could burst and release blood but other than that it is nothing serious.
The doc was really good about it, they see this stuff all the time. I'm a 33 year old male in good health so was surprised to hear I had piles! Get it checked out rather than self diagnosing, it may not be as bad as you think.
Good luck.

My anatomy teacher once told us a story about something just like this. It was an ingrown hair he had to have surgically removed.
i had one too, it was at the very top of my crack, and very very painful, my doctor said it was a cyst but surgery is NOT the only way to get rid if it although it is a way to get rid of it for good. my doctor actually put a string of gauze into it (very painful) and advised me to pull it out very little every day so that it would close up as it healed instead of healing with space in the middle. unfortunately i pulled it out a little too much one day but luckily the "hole" stays close to the surface so when it comes back it is fairly painless and does not discharge hardly any puss
i too have a lump size of goft ball, its is abcess, went for sugery and they have to cut it and let the pus out, they will do it within 1 hour just to clear the pus, now my butt is cramp, need the change the dressing every week
