I have 4 sore spots on one of my butt cheeks, i have scratched them and they weep clear fluid, i am using sudocream and they are less painful and appear to be healing albeit very slowly. I am keen to know what they are and how to avoid getting this again?

The most probable cause of the same is furunculosis which is an infection of the hair follicle.It can be treated with topical antibacterial creams like mupirocin.You must avoid pricking or fiddling with them as much ad possible.
