Accepted Answer

Possible Causes

There are several possible causes for the swelling and pain in your buttock, including:

1. Abscess or boil: A bacterial infection that causes a pocket of pus to form.
2. Pilonidal cyst: A cyst that forms near the tailbone, often causing pain, swelling, and infection.
3. Furuncle or carbuncle: A skin infection that causes a painful, pus-filled bump.
4. Cellulitis: A bacterial infection of the skin and underlying tissues.
5. Trauma or injury: A fall or direct blow to the buttock can cause swelling and pain.

Recommended Next Steps

To get proper diagnosis and treatment, I strongly recommend that you:

1. Seek medical attention: Visit an urgent care center, emergency room, or schedule an appointment with your primary care physician.
2. Get a proper examination: A medical professional will examine the affected area, take a medical history, and possibly order imaging tests (e.g., X-rays, ultrasound) to determine the cause of the swelling and pain.
3. Follow treatment recommendations: Based on the diagnosis, your healthcare provider will recommend treatment, which may include antibiotics, drainage of an abscess, or other interventions.

Self-Care Measures

While waiting for medical attention, you can try the following self-care measures:

1. Apply ice: Ice can help reduce swelling and ease pain.
2. Take over-the-counter pain relievers: Pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) can help manage pain and discomfort.
3. Avoid strenuous activities: Avoid activities that exacerbate the pain or discomfort.
4. Keep the area clean: Gently clean the affected area with mild soap and water to prevent infection.

Question 3

I have a blade cut mark on my hand that's been there for about 2 years. I'm getting married soon and really want to find a way to reduce or remove the mark. Could you recommend any ointments or treatments that might help?

Accepted Answer

For a two-year-old scar, topical treatments like silicone gel (e.g., Mederma or Kelo-Cote) can help reduce its appearance over time. For more effective results, consider dermatological treatments like laser therapy, microdermabrasion, or chemical peels. Consult a dermatologist to choose the best option for your skin type and timeline.

Accepted Answer

For instant fairness with no side effects on oily skin, you can consider using "Kojic Acid Cream". Apply a thin layer of this cream on your face once daily, preferably at night. Make sure to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from any potential sensitivity to sunlight.
