Suggest Remedy For Lumps
Today I have had a brown lump come up on my inside of my left bum cheek. It is not like piles, as I have had them before they are near your anus, this is actually on the bum cheek. It was large but has gone down a bit, but it is painful to sit down on. What do you think it maybe ?

Hello! Welcome to HCM.
This can be due to infection causing inflammation & swelling.
Do you have fever?
If yes, then this may be containing pus, which should be drained early by your doctor.
This can also be a lipoma or an infected implantation dermoid.. benign tumors.
Local examination by your doctor is necessary for diagnosis & appropriate treatment.
FNAC - fine needle aspiration cytology may also be advised for confirmation of diagnosis if in doubt clinically.
Hope this information is useful.
Wish you healthy life.
Thanks.
Regards.
