Errm, I m a 15 year old girl, and there s a a spot/ lump on my right but cheek, near where my bottom meets my thigh. The area around it is slightly red and swollen , and it hurts if I sit down. Is it an abcess? Do I need to see a doctor or will it go away of it s own accord?
Hello! Thank you for the query. Yes, most likely this is an abscess. Pain, redness and swelling are very characteristic symptoms of an abscess. Such abscess can be caused by some skin glands infection or sebaceous cyst infection. The best treatment for this condition is incision and Chat Doctor.  If its sebaceous cyst, should be completely removed. I suggest you to consult general surgeon with this issue. In case of doubts, soft tissues' ultrasound should be done. Hope this will help. Regards.
