Suggest Treatment For Recurring Lumps On Buttocks

Hi, I sometimes get one or two bumps at a time on my buttCHEEK. They are not painful, only if I sit on them. If I press on it, it feels hard. They don t pop/fluid doesn t come out, but it goes back down. Based on previous scars, they have all been in a straight line. This has been happening on/off for some months now.
