Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pimples on lower buttocks . Pimples on the buttocks are actually relatively common. Dirt and moisture get trapped by your clothing and the friction that comes from sitting can cause pimple . other causes are folliculitis or boils . I would suggest you to keep this area clean and dry , apply cream containing azelaic acid , apply warm compresses with soaked towel and apply vitamin C serum at night . If condition doesn't get better then consult dermatologist for proper examination . doctor will examine physically along with blood test and sample for lab test . Doctor may prescribe immunosuppressants , antibiotics like clindamycin , anti inflammatory or anti fungal . Doctor may also prescribe benzoyl peroxide ointment .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwar
