What Causes A Persistent Puss Filled Cyst In The Buttock?

My grandson just 35 days old has developed a cyst near buttock. Yellowish in color got admitted in Stanford Children s Hospital. Found no infections in blood, cyst was cut puss removed. Mild antibiotics were administered in Hospital advised oral anti biotics. Developed the cyst with puss again. Need a general information whether it is normal and no need to worry. Your information will be a solace to me.

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi...the treatment had been good I agree with the doctors there. But If I were the kid's pediatrician I would prefer to do a work up for immunodeficiency as to why the kid of such a young age had developed an abscess there.
