What Causes Bumps Between Buttocks?
Experiencing bump between my butt cheeks more then probably 10 plus the just look like white hanging skin moles. After wiping when I go to the restroom I tend to see blood on the toilet paper, if you can please give me an idea of what it might be and if its curable I would greatly appreciate it. Its quite of a scary subject to talk about because my father died of colon cancer and everyone in my family has been diagnosed with cancer and I want to catch it if possible before it s too late. Thank you for your time hope to hear from you soon!

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have bump between buttocks . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query infection , hematoma , abscess , sebaceous cyst , lipoma or boil . I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may examine physically , order blood test or take sample for lab test . Doctor may surgically drain it , perform liposuction in case of lipoma , prescribe antibiotics like clarithromycin along with coticosteroid ointment .For now keep it clean and dry , drink plenty of water , take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain and apply cold compresses on it thrice a day to reduce redness and itchiness . Do not massage or prick the bump .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
