A member asked:

I have a lump/bump on my lower side of myack near the start of my anus. it really hurts when i sit for a long period of time . cant see it. only feel.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Coccyx? Fistula?: A hard not movable lump here may be your coccyx (tailbone), often easily bruised in thin people, worsened by sitting. A mobile tender lump may be a cyst ?(pilonidal) or an anal fistula/abscess, especially with redness and fever. Get checked if it persists.
