Hi, I have and have been getting these cyst or boil like things on my butt cheeks between my legs for years, I used to only get one at time every once in a while. Lately I have had at least 3 now 5 and two of them are open and bleeding . What can I do for these sores? I have tried to use Colloidal Silver. It seems to help, but I don t want to take it all the time. is there something I can do to prevent these break outs?

Hi,

You should meet a dermatologist around you and seek his/her help.
From the history, it seems you could be having any of the following: recurrent furuncles, acne inversa, crohn's disease, warts, fistulae and chronic abscesses.
You may need antibiotics and some immunosuppresant medications.
At home, you should use an antibiotic cream which contains fusidic acid or mupirocin unless you are allergic. Keep the area clean and dry and use some antifungal powder to prevent fungal infection. Do not wear tight clothes and underwear.

Hope this helps you
