What Does Painful, Hard Lump Inside Butt Cheek Indicate?

hello, for the last three days I have had a painful lump/mass on the inside of my left butt cheek right above my rectum. I have had three pilonidal cysts drained in the past and im pretty sure this is not the same thing.im in terrible pain though the lump is not much bigger then a penny but is very very hard.should I be worried?

This one is a sebaceous cyst which is chronically inflamed!

Please go for an FNAC test to relieve your tension.

All the best and regards,
