How To Treat A Painful Mass On The Butt Cheek?

I have a large mass in my right butt cheek with excruciating pain. Touching, walking, sitting, laying are all painful to the point of tears. Visited the urgent care and they think it is a deep rooted infection but the antibiotics aren t helping. Haven t passed a stool in two days. Mass goes from tail bone to anus but is on the check. Please help

hello healthcare user,
you seem to be having a abscess.abscess is a collection of pus..i would advice you to get a abscess drained at a surgeons place.he will drain it out and you will suddenly feel relaxed...also you will need to continue antibiotics depending on culture and sensitivity reports of the pus drained...dont worry,you will soon be ok.thank you
