Swelling right above the butt crease
It started with a swelling on the left side of the butt crease and then after 2 days the swelling on the left side reduced and didn't pain at all but the swelling came to the right side.. and today it's the 6th day and now both sides the swelling has reduced and there's a small swelling in the middle of the crease a bit towards the left and I feel like there's fluid inside it... But the thing is all these days the pain was so much i couldn't even sit properly but now only the center part is paining a bit but other than that I'm able to sit properly and do stuff.. what is this?

Detailed history and clear images are required for correct diagnosis and treatment. Do not delay. If it is a bacterial infection, there is possibility of cyst formation. Few comorbidities must be ruled out.
