(Warning: Disgusting images) What could be the cause of the bump on the upper part of the buttock?

My mother was first diagnosed while receiving acupuncture treatment at a traditional Korean medicine clinic.

It's been almost two years already.

It's located just above the area where the hip bone forms, so even as a family member, I didn't know because I had no reason to see it.

Mom thought that maybe she developed calluses just from sitting frequently.

 

The Korean doctor said it seems to be the early stage of a pressure sore.

I tried applying pressure sore ointment, but it had no effect...

I also looked up a lot of information related to pressure ulcers.

It keeps growing larger, then a blister forms, then it falls off, and then it forms again, repeating continuously.

 

I also visited the dermatology department, but they couldn't determine the exact cause, and they said it doesn't seem to be a pressure sore.

They said not to touch it and to wait until the thing falls off;;;

The wart is just getting thicker and thicker, and I don't see any sign of it falling off...

I really didn't touch it;;;

 

Meanwhile, the size keeps getting bigger and it doesn't get better..

This time too, I went to the dermatologist and received a prescription for ointment, and I am applying an ointment called Dr. Rovan morning and evening.

The dandruff is falling off very gradually, and at a certain size, it no longer falls or decreases, remaining the same...

 

I searched a lot on Naver and similar sites, but I couldn't find a similar picture...

The pressure sore has a sunken appearance, and the abscess appears somewhat smaller with pus formation, as shown in many photos.

 

I think it might be too disgusting... so I will upload it as small as possible;;;

It might look like mold in the picture, but it's not recent, so the shape has changed a lot now. It's in a beetle-like form... If you actually touch it, it's very hard... The area around the beetle seems to have a slight red rash.

When you apply ointment, it feels a bit softer, and the surrounding areas gradually start to peel off...

 

My mother's scars are bumpy and protruding, looking like very thick calluses.

You haven't been injured there, and you're not like the elderly who can't move and lie down every day;;;

I have no idea why that even exists there...

 

It's really frustrating because even after visiting the hospital, there hasn't been much improvement.

My mom usually can't sleep lying on her side; she prefers to sleep lying flat.

Even though that part is sunken in, it protrudes too thickly, so I feel bloated now and I think I also experience pain when lying down.

If you miss applying the ointment for a few days, it may slightly seep through the underwear like pus or discharge.

My older brother's friend is a urologist, so I tried to explain it once, but he said there are people who develop that, and it's actually something that doesn't go away naturally.

They say there's nothing to do but keep applying the ointment without touching it.

 

You really can't understand the inconvenience unless it's you yourself...

It seems like it's been two years of stagnation, and things are only getting worse, which makes me feel very uncomfortable...

Even though I already have so many pain points, why is it causing trouble there too;;;

 

And I have already been using this Dr. Rovan ointment for about two weeks.

This ointment is an antibiotic ointment.

 

According to the instructions, the infected area should be applied with a small amount 2 to 3 times a day for 10 days...

 

The area is quite large and wide, so a small amount isn't enough; I need to apply quite a bit.

I used up all 15g in just two weeks;;; So today I have to buy more and apply it again.

Is it okay to use this type of antibiotic ointment for a long time???

 

Has anyone with elderly family members ever seen something like this on their buttocks?

Even when I go to the hospital, I can't get a definite answer, so my worries keep increasing and I feel frustrated...
