Question 1

Had a hard pimple on lower back in february. it took a while to go down and since then there's been a brownish red mark in that spot. normal?

Accepted Answer

You likely had a cyst, which is not serious and can appear without any provocation.  It may or not be tender and usually lasts weeks t o  m onths and then goes away, but may leave a discolored area, which should fade in time

Question 2

I have a small pimple rash on my lower back, it is ticklish but a bit painful, what could it be? and what is the best way to treat it.

Accepted Answer

Hi,
Sorry to hear you are feeling poorly. It is difficult to give you a diagnosis without being able to see the rash but if you are starting to have pain over the rash, I'd recommend seeing a doctor as soon as you can. Likely this is something easily treated if recognized early. Hope this helps.

Question 3

I have 2 small pimple like bumps on my lower back and they hurt, they are the size of a seed?

Accepted Answer

Could be folliculitis which is an infection of hair follicle ,  a sebacous cyst or sebacous gland infection (acne),rarely a wart or growth. Would have it checked out by doctor /urgent care , as they can enlarge.  May improve with  antibiotics either topical like bacitracin or oral.

Question 4

27years old guy since a year i got pimples on my lower and upper back and since a month or 6 also on my chest and stomach(itchy). what can help me?

Accepted Answer

Pimples on trunk and chest are  uncommon in men of your age. I do wonder if the reaction you have are really pimples or if they are allergic reaction to new laundry products, fabric softener, or soaps.  You really need to see your doctor to let him evaluate it better.  Best wishes.

Question 5

I have a spot on my lower back that doesn't hurt but its like a pimple and u can squeeze puss out. should i be worried about it?

Accepted Answer

If u can express pus from lesion, best to have it checked & treated. With so MRSA now in the community, it's best not to take chances. See doc; give good history: how long it's been there, bleeding? Pus? Pain? Redness? Fever? Insect bite prior to appearance?

Question 6

Currently have a bump in my lower back. pimple/cyst-like, occasional pus. no growth, but has existed for half a year. ?

Accepted Answer

This might be a pilonidal cyst and I would have it looked at as it can lead to a pilonidal abscess and need surgery if it gets to that point.  Very common in the low back near the buttocks.

Question 7

What causes burning sensation on the lower back? no pain but constant feeling as if there is a heater facing my back? nothing visible on it ie pimples/redness/etc.

Accepted Answer

Most people describe nerve related pain as burning or stinging, sometimes numbness. If the sensation moves into the leg it can be due to compression of the nerve either around the spine or outward toward the buttock area - this is called sciatica. Your healthcare provider can start the evaluation to treat.

Question 8

My 1yr old has an itchy fine rash on his face and lower back. its fine pimples, reddish in colour. any recommendations on something i can get otc?

Accepted Answer

This could easily be a reaction to something he ate/drank or as yet unknown exposure. Most will fade over time (food rxn 3-4 days) and others a variable interval. The generally fade in spite of anything you so it is okay just to ignore it for now & see what happens. A bit of diphenhydramine may help with any itching. (1 tsp/25 lb)

Question 9

Hi, i have these small red lumps, similar to pimples starting to appear in patches. it started on my right thigh, and is now on my lower back and is spreading. it is itchy, red, and if popped, transparent matter comes out. ?

Accepted Answer

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. Your description suggests infection of hair follicles, folliculitis and may require antibiotic treatment. It would be prudent to see a doctor.

Question 10

I have something that resembles a pimple on the outside of my vagina & my pelvic area is sore/stiff. also, bottom right side of my lower back is \

Accepted Answer

You could have an infected cyst- see your gynecologist.
