What Causes A Painful Lump On The Butt Cheek?
Hi I had a bad fall when getting out of the bath and fell with one leg either side of the bath. I was badly bruised. The bruising is healing but I have noticed a hard lump forming under the skin on my bum cheek and inner thigh. It is painful when touched. What could this be and should I see my go?
