Hi, thanks for sharing your health concerns with HCM!

If I were your treating Doctor for this case of butt-crack lump, I would come up with only one and one possibility that is a sebaceous cyst! Nothing to worry about this and try not to get infected there!

However, it could be some benign tumor like neurofibroma or lipoma like conditions also!

I suggest you to go for an FNAC test of the lump for confirmation and to relieve your concerns!

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
