He says it burns, itches, and hurts when he sits. It s red but it is not bleeding and it does not have a head on it for puss to come out. It s just a red lump that burns and itches. It s on the outside of his but hike between his butt hole and scrotum. Please help!

HI.
By the description you have provided, this is a case of a boil, it can be a beginning of a fistula in ano or a perineal abscess.
I would advise you the following:

Investigations of blood and urine particularly for blood sugar;
Get a prescription for antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicines .
Hot fomentation;
Regular review.
If resolves well and good,
But if not he may need a small surgery to have a incision and drainage of the area and to investigate for potential fistula.
