I have a lump in my left buttcheek pretty close to my anus. i had this before but the pain and lump went away after it exploded. what is this?

Perianal abscess: It sounds like you have what is called a perianal abscess. These things can come and go. Often times they will open up/rupture and drain infected material. If it keeps coming back then it needs to be surgically excised.
