Pimple-like on butt

Hard to tell without a better description. Are they like ordinary pimples? If so, they probably are, and the best thing might be to use an antibacterial wash regularly.
-
no. dont think so....they are large then normal pimple...
-
Do they come to a head eventually? If they do, perhaps they are boils - I'd try the same treatment. If they don't, they might be sebaceous cysts, which can particularly appear where clothes rub.
-
hmm..i think they might be boils....what are they??. and what can i do to get rid of it??

Boils are an infection, so keeping the skin free of bacteria by an anti-bacterial wash should prevent new ones forming. You can't do much with ones you already have except to let them run their course.

Okay, I have the same problem! These start out like pimple-like bumps (only on my buttocks and stomach area). They begin small and itchy - then all of a sudden they grow and the heads look dark, but they also have a round hard area that's swollen underneath. Not all of them get super large only a few! I'm 40 years old and I've "never" had pimples on my face, let alone on my buttocks! HELP!!! I've been bathing with Dial Antibacterial Soap, but I'm not getting any relief! Any suggestions??

They're perianal cysts, usually - if they don't just "go away".I've gotten one in the same area for several years.Had it surgically "removed" twice already - still there.They're one of the symptoms of Crohn's Disease also - if you've got other symptoms you might want to look into that.It's something to speak to a doctor about, nonetheless.
