Suggest Treatment For Small Lump On The Buttocks
I have a small lump on my inner-right buttock. I initially thought it to be only a pimple, but it has grown since I discovered it and does not feel like a pimple. It is not painful, although it is slightly more sensitive than the surrounding skin. I am 18 years old

Hello.
Dear sir/madam, i thoroughly understand your concern regarding the issue.
for any lump on the body few basic things have to be looked into like rapid increase in size. redness, increased temperature over swelling, pulsatility over swelling, discharge from swelling, other symptoms like fever , pain and tenderness.
if you notice anything of the above, i suggest you to get personally examined to rule out the causes.
* till then kindly make sure you maintain a good personal hygiene. keep the effected place clean and dry.
if the lump is smaller than 2 cm without any other symptoms and not increasing in size then it will mostly reduce by itself.
thanks for referring to HCM.
contact me for further queries.
With Best Regards.
