Hi. I don know if you can help me but a had a pimple on my buttcrack. I left it alone thinking it was the rift thing to do.... Wrong. Now I have a huge rash that itches and hurts insanely and when I itch it bleeds . There like lumps and the never go away and it s very red from my top of my butt crack to close to my privets. Do you have any home remedies or should I got to the store or should I got to the doctor? I ve had it for about a week and its only getting worse.

hi..thanks for your query.
From what you mention, it is possible that there was folliculitis to start with initially .now there might be multiple eruptions with the surrounding areas,
it is important that you consult a dermatologist immediately to start the appropriate therapy.You might require oral antibiotics and anti inflammatories for the same.You can start application of antibiotic ointment like mupirocin /fusidic acid on the lesions.Taking oral anti allergics like Allegra will help you control the itching
Hope this helps
take care!
