What Causes A Painful Bump On The Buttock Of A Baby?

I have a 20 month old daughter, and her last diaper change i noticed a purplish/ almost black bump (looks like a pimple of some sort)on the left of her bottom. It feels hard like a pimple that is ready to burst. It is very sensitive, to where she isn t wanting to sit on the left side of her bottom. She isn t running a fever. My question is how do i go about popping it?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, contact dermatitis could be the condition and for that you can apply Diphenhydramine lotion, skin lesion always demands the clinical examination for right diagnosis and without this diagnosis may not be correct so it is better to see doctor hope this information helps.
