Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump On The Buttock

I have had a pain in my butt crack at the top for about a week now. I haven t fallen or hit it on anything. The pain gets worse when I lay or sit on it or when I move the wrong way. Yesterday j noticed a knot come up at the top of my crack. It s very painful to the touch. I looked up a bunch of stuff on Google to try an figure it out but I can t pinpoint it. It s getting worse each day. I didn t want to go to the doctor unless I had too because I can t really afford it.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having ingrown hair follicle infection and now leading to forming abscess.
You might require one course of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicine after consulting your doctor.
Ok and take care.
