What Could Painful Sore Lump Shaped Into Flat Ring On Right Butt Cheek Indicate?
I have a very sore lump about the size of a quarter located inside my right butt cheek. I have had this for almost a year. It first started out in the shape of a ball and has slowly shaped into a flat ring. It is getting more and more painful daily. Please Help.!

Hi
The kind of skin lesion that you have seems to be suggestive of a sebaceous cyst.
Since the skin lesion is persisting since one year now and you are developing recurrent episodes of pain in the lesions, you need assessment by a dermatologist so that you can be treated with a proper course of antibiotics and can further be advised excision of the lesion if required.
