What Causes Painless Lump On Buttocks?

Hello I am a 21 year old male and have a solid under the skin lump on my left anus cheek about the size of a kidney bean. I don t have any pain at the moment and there is no head for it to be any kind of spot. About 3 years ago I had a pilonidal abscess above my anus hole if this helps.
