Question

There's a small bump near the start of my butt crack that I recently noticed. It doesn't hurt or feel uncomfortable, but I had an itchy bum and felt it while I was scratching. The bump doesn't seem to move, and I don't think there's any redness involved. I'm not sure if this is something new or if it's been there for a while. Should I be worried about this?

This could be a benign skin condition such as a cyst or a skin tag. Without further examination, it is difficult to determine the exact cause. I recommend keeping the area clean and dry to prevent any potential irritation. If the bump persists or changes in any way, it would be best to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

Recently, I switched to taking glutathione 500mg tablets and applying Kojivit Ultra cream for the last two months. Im really curious and a bit worriedwill these two new treatments give me the same awesome results as hydroquinone, or should I consider starting another cycle with hydroquinone 2%?
