A member asked:

Is a solid movable lump by my tailbone cancer? there is a little pit and some hair in that area. it's about 1 cm x 0.5 cm. maybe smaller. what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get seen: This is probably a pilonidal sinus. Many people have this. If you're naturally blessed with a lot of body hair, it may become troublesome. Show your physician at your next routine physical exam.
