Itchy, Re-occuring Red Bumps On Butt! Please Help
Posted: 09-10-05 01:35am

A few weeks ago I got two itchy red bumps on my butt. They were about the size of a bug bite, so I thought they were spider bites or something and thought they'd just go away. They itched soooo much and one of them actually burst. Anyway, a few days later I got another one and they just kept appearing every few days until I noticed there were about 5. They generally scab over and turn into a scar. I'm not sure what they are... They keep reappearing every once in a while. And they're only on my butt so it seems a bit weird. I didn't get a new one for a week or so and today I noticed two more. I have no idea what this could be...
And I only noticed this after I moved into my new apartment. My question is, what could this be? And why is it only localized on my butt?

Actually, no. They have gone away or have scared, and there haven't been any recurrences. So i'm assuming it could have been a spider bite or something that has spread for a short period

Umm this might seem odd to you but I get them too, I have no clue what they are but they normally go away after a few day if I just leave them alone. If you do figure out what they are, could you tell me?

Thanks

I Have the Exact Same Problem!!
Posted: 10-03-05 22:45pm

Three weeks ago I noticed a bump on my butt and I scratched it.....A bunch of liquid came out, and later on that day it started to swell really big and became extremely painful.....Anyhow, I went to the doctor, got antibiotics (they told me it was some kind of bite)

k so now the bite is almost healed, (it got really bad, absessed) and suddenly another bump appeared, only this time like a mosquito bite only it scabs over in the middle when its healing, and it kinda hurts like a pimple.....That one healed, and another one appeared! Now I have 2, one is hopefully healing.....They are all on my butt, and only on one cheek....


Wierd thing is, you said you just moved into a new apartment....Well none of this happened till I moved into my apartment a month ago!!!!!!


I'm wondering if this could be some kind of allergic reaction to something they use to clean apartments, I don't know!!!!! I hate it! My butt is gonna be all scarred up!

I haven't gotten any recurrences... And this did only happen when I moved into my apartment ( which was about 1 1/2 months ago). I think that maybe my roommate's cat might have had fleas or something..
When I got them, they mostly appeared only on one buttcheak too and now I have a bunch of scars left from it. So i'm going to go to the dermatologist to see how I can get rid of the scars.
Occasionally I get a tiny pimple on my butt that grows to be fluid-filled and then it basically shrinks down after a day and is only a tiny red dot. I think that anyone with similar symptoms should talk to their dermatologist about it. It could be caused by a mite or flea....It could be lots of things. So it's better to get it checked out.
If anyone has any similar symptoms or stories...Please let me know!! And how you dealt with it ( ie: medications, creams)

hey well i noticed them all around on my butt little red bumps like the size of a bug bite!!! well i think i have a reason when u site for too long and you start sweeting and you get up and it is a little raw or tender and your pants or shorts or what ever you are wearing sticks to ur butt that might be a reason because i play World Of Warcraft and i am on the computer playing and my butt sweats so that could be a reason. if any questions about what i just wrote my e-mail is (we dont share private email adresses on the website) You can use the PM feature.

I get them too. They pop up, itch, dry up and go away. Who knows what they are but they itch.
