A member asked:

Have a hard purple pimple on my buttocks for a few days. how do i take care of this? doesn't hurt, no puss just hard bump.

Do nothing: If it is due to minor trauma it will reabsorb itself. However, other conditions may mimic a small bleed for the untrained person. If other ones appear or does not go away have it check by a qualified physician.
