What Could Cause Pain And Bump On The Butt Crack Area?

I m 35.5 weeks pregnant and about 4 days ago; I begin feeling some very bad pain in the butt crack area. The top of my butt is very sore and 4 days ago I could feel the bumps but could I see anything. But today I can see an enlarge bump about 1 inches long in the middle of my butt crack. My butt is enlarged on both side of the bump and it is very painful. I have been using a heat pad and that help just a little. But today I m in some much pain. Thank you,

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
The symptoms are suggesting me that you may be having infection of the sebaceous gland near the tail bone or you may be having boil in this region.
As you are pregnant what ever the medicine you want to take you have to consult your obstetrician to take them.
You may require a course of oral antibiotics to reduce the infection and a mild analgesics to reduce the pain.
Continue with the hot fermentation. I would suggest you to consult your obstetrician for physical examination and find out what exactly is the bump and take medicines as per the advise.
Thank you.
