Sorry for this gross picimage.thumb.jpeg.06f1b52a69b95cee17a51ac I didn't realize how bad this looked until I just took a pic of it... But this showed up last Wednesday I think and it's right in the crease between my butt and leg when I stand up. At first I thought it was just a pimple bc there were two (the other one was much smaller and popped after a day and is gone now) and I would pop it once it got less painful. But this one hurts a lot to sit on, and is clearly not just a pimple. I tried putting an antibiotic and a bandaid on it for a day or two but I feel like it made it worse! It hurt whether I was sitting on it or walking bc it's right at the bottom of my butt cheek. I've been taking ibuprofen for a few days so I didn't really notice the pain but it wore off and right now this hurts even with nothing on it. Idk what to do I'm only 17. What can I do to make it go away??

Definitely go to the doctors!! You don't want it to end up getting infected, if it isn't already.

I would definitely agree with em_xoxo on this, this needs to be treated right away. It could be a spider bite, it could be cyst, or it could be something far worse like a staph infection or MRSA if not treated promptly. You will most likely need a round of antibiotics no matter what it is to help battle this infection. Get your booty to the doctor...! Pardon the pun :)
