Sores on Buttocks

by questioning86, Jun 19, 2009 02:15PM
I am a 24 year old male who first noticed a sore between my butt 6 months ago. It does not hurt or itch and the skin under the sore is hard and larger than the visible sore. Recently two more sores developed in the same area between my butt cheeks. Recently they must have been rubbing against my pants and started to bleed.
They are the size of a dime and are all developing close to my butt crack.
I have been with my girlfriend for over a year and half now. A couple months after we were together she was checked out and was told she did not have any sexually transmitted diseases so I thought I was ok and she has not developed any symptoms as I have since.
Could this be a disease that didnt show up when she got the test and still hasn't?
Please help.

Hello,

Without examination,confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be folliculitis, swollen lymph nodes,rash due to friction rub or haemorrhoids(it sometimes starts as anal lump or rash).
Also possibility of anal warts cannot be ruled out.

In my opinion you should talk to a cosmetologist/dermatologist about this and get these lumps evaluated.

Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
