What Causes Lump With Blister On The Crack Of Butt?
While showering, I discovered a nickle size lump, with what feels like a blister on the crack of my butt. It's not close enough to the anus, to think it's a possible hemorrhoid. What I thought was a blister, looks more like a mole, because it's darker than a regular looking blister. The stream of the shower was painful. What could this be? Should I see a doctor? It may have drained just a bit. I've never experienced this before. Thank you.

Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query. It is hard to say what it is withou t seeing it but at this area we usually see pylonidal cysts, abscesses or folliculitis. it can aslo be std od herpes infection. You should see proctologist who can then decide is surgical removal necessary or not. Wish you good health. Regards
