Tiny lump
This morning afrer my morning shit and shower, I noticed a TINY lump on my ass cheek. Not anywhere near where I inject. It’s low like at the fattest booty part of the cheek, not up in the glute where I inject. Of course now I’m thinking the worst possible scenario like an abscess but it’s relatively close to the surface and doesn’t hurt. It feels like it’s the size of a pea. I’m going to keep feeling it every day.
The only possible thing I can think of is that for a few weeks I was taking glutathione injections but couldn’t do them myself so I had my wife inject for me using a 27g 1 1/4” pin. Glutathione is reconstituted with water so I don’t know how it could be an abscess. I guess for now I’ll just monitor it Any ideas?? |

could be a cyst, fatty tumor or calcium deposit.

I'm guessing lipoma (fat tumor), harmless. If you mess with it every day, it can get inflamed. Painless = good. I have 5 in various areas about the size of a pea to size of kidney bean.

Fatty tumors are harmless unless causing you pain. My doctor always finds them when I get my annual check up. He will ask if there’s any pain associated with any of them & if not just forget about them.

I keep checking it every so often to see if it grows.
It’s definitely under the skin/fat. It’s not like the sebaceous cyst I have on my back. That thing is large and insurance doesn’t cover. $1400 to remove it. I’ll order some lidocaine and inject it around the cyst and have my wife cut into it and squeeze out all the cheese! |

No pain is a good sign. More than likely a fatty cyst.

I agree with everyone else. My wife had one removed on her back a couple of tears ago. It's probably fine.

It be nice to get both removed but insurance isn’t what it once was?

When you get old Medicare pays almost everything. So keep above the ground Ling enough to cash in.
