View allI'm dealing with a situation where I had corns on my toes because of my footwear, and I used salactin paint to try and fix it. While the corns have settled down a bit, I accidentally put some of the salactin on my normal skin, and now it's more damaged than the corns were. I've been trying to rub off the affected skin but haven't had any luck, and it's been almost a month now. What should I do?

I noticed a black bump in my butt about a week ago and it's still there. Is this something that can go away on its own or do I need to see a doctor? It doesn't hurt much but the color worries me. Can it be treated without surgery?
It could be a thrombosed external hemorrhoid or cyst. If painless, warm compresses and observation help. See a doctor if it persists or changes.
