How To Treat Painful Lump On Right Buttocks?

Hi,I have a hard lump on my right buttock cheek about 2-3 inches long. It is below the skin and it is hard to touch. When I touch it is painful but not painful enough that I cannot press it. I had visited a doctor who gave me an antibiotic tablet but the lump is not decreasing. Please advise.Regards, Ramesh

it won't vanish just because of antibiotics as it is an infected sebaceous cyst and it needs FNAC test for confirmation followed by surgical removal.
