I'm having a problem with some bumps on my buttocks and I'm wondering if there's any home remedy that might help. Also, could you recommend the best doctor to see about this issue? I'm really anxious to know how soon this can be resolved. Any advice would be appreciated.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called folliculitis, which is inflammation of the hair follicles. You can try using over-the-counter antibacterial washes like Hibiclens or Betadine to help clear up the bumps. Applying a warm compress to the affected area several times a day can also help. Make sure to wear loose-fitting clothing to allow the area to breathe. If the bumps do not improve with home remedies, it would be best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment. They may prescribe topical antibiotics or other medications to help clear up the folliculitis. The time it takes to resolve the issue can vary depending on the severity of the condition, but with proper treatment, it should improve within a few weeks.
