Pimple Like Red Spots On Buttocks That Bleed. Used A Moisturiser. Could It Be Psoriasis?

Hi, I have a small red spot on my butt cheek, it has been there for a roughly 2 months and I thought it was a pimple and tried to pop it but it just bled and seemed to get more swollen. I then thought it was psoriasis so I started putting moisturizer on it, it has gotten smaller but is still red. I'm not sure what it is.
