I noticed a 2 inch lump (like a fatty lump) under my skin and on my buttocks a couple weeks ago. I didn't think much of it as it's in the same location as I get my b-12 shot every other week. However, it's not gone away and is quite painful. I'm starting to get concerned that it's something more. Should I see a dermatologist?

I keep getting painful lumps on the inner thighs at the very tops of both my legs. You can't visibly see them as they appear to be under the skin but are hard to the touch and painful. Sometimes they go and then new ones form a few days later. I'm not sure what these are.
