Suggest Remedy For Recurring Pus Filled Lump On My Buttocks

I've had this sore lump on top of my butt hole for about 6-7years now and it always fills up, bursts every week or so with lots and lots of blood, it feels jelly like when grows In size and gets really itchy, if I pass wind I can sometimes feel it fill the lump up and can actually feel the lump growing as if ballon type instead of actually passing the wind. It's a disturbing lump and need help ASAP, what can this be considering I've had it for so many years?

Welcome to Health care magic.
1.Its looks like a pilonidal sinus with pus discharge and passing gas through it.
2.In needs immediate action see your GP as soon as possible.
3.It needs to be examined and an ultrasound examination of the lesion to evaluate the nature of the lesion and its source and extensions.
4.In initial state a course of antibiotic will be enough - where as complicated stage -operative procedure is needed.
5.As a remedy - maintain local hygiene, do not scratch clean with antiseptic lotions, heel the area dry.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
