Suggest Treatment For Lump In The Buttock

I Have a swollen lump on the inside of my left butt cheek next to my anus. It is internal, no surfsce penatration. If I apply pressure or squeeze it, clear redish liquid comes out. Not sure what to do at this point. Have been taking Amoxicillin that I had left over.

welcome to Health care magic.
1.It seems like a bacterial infection causing abscess formation with sinus / external opening.
2.They are pilonidal sinus which comes from the hair follicle and make a communication to rectum / bowel and externally opening.
3.I would suggest to get a ultrasound scan of the lesion done to see the nature and content of the lesion, and its extension.
4.A course of antibiotic or incision and drainage - depending on the condition of the area.
5.Get an appoint meant and see your doctor as soon as you can, as there are complications in this issue.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
