Probably a cyst: This may be a pilonidal cyst but it could be something else and should be evaluated by your physician, .

Hemangioma: A blue lump can be several things and should be examined by a plastic surgeon or dermatologist, especially if it has grown or changed in any way. It could be a tumor of blood vessels, a lipoma (fatty tumor), or even a large mole. Have it looked at for your peace of mind. Be well, dr. Fred.
