What causes red bump on inner cheek of buttocks?
Patient: My 18 month old has a big, hardened, red bump on the inner cheek of her buttocks. At first I thought it was a pimple, but it grew to be a size beyond typical sized pimples and it has clear as well as a dull yellowish puss coming out of it upon a soft touch. Some soft blood comes out as well and it is painful to my baby. Please help m understand what this is? I m so scared! Doctor: Hi,From history it seems that there might be having developing abscess over that site.There might be having diaper rash brought soreness and developed bacterial infection.consult your doctor and get examined.With removal of pus and proper dressing by the doctor is advised for proper and quick healing.Appropriate antibiotic medicine should be given.Ok and take care.
