What Causes Hard Bump On Butt Cheek?

I have a hard bump on my butt cheek. It is not visible (under the skin). No discoloration, quarter sized. I tried to poke it with a needle thinking it was an in grown hair, no drainage... appears to be a mass of some kind because of the lack of fluid. Any guesses? I have an appt on the 28th, but today it started hurting to sit on, so I came here for possible solutions

Hi,Dear,
Thanks for the query to HCM. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns.
Cause and plan of Treatment-
In my opinion on the given data,you seem to have bruise leading to boil with cellulitic stage as its hard only and without any pus or blood in it.
Friction in the butt cheeks lead to bruise which after infection caused boil in progress with cellulitic stage.
Hope this would resolve your issues.Act fast.
So keep cool and Consult your ER PCP doctor and ER Surgeon, if need be , who would treat it accordingly.
So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you, but just ask a query to HCM and be comfortable to resolve your health issues.
