Non Itchy Dry Spot On The Buttocks. Should I Be Concerned?
I have a new spot that I noticed about 6 months ago the size of a nickel at the very bottom of my right butt cheek where it curves. It feels like I let a thin layer of glue dry there. It s not itchy & the skin color is just a tiny bit darker in that spot. It s not red, bumpy, or sore. There is a dimple under it that wasn t there before.It is the same size as the dry spot. There has been no changes. I thought maybe it was caused from sitting to much but I don t understand why it isn t on both cheeks if that is the case. What do you think?
