Dealing with a Persistent Buttock Cut: Causes, Treatment & When to See a Doctor

Here are some tips:

- See a doctor if the cut does not heal after a few days or if it becomes infected.

- Keep the area clean and dry.

- Avoid scratching the area, as this can worsen the cut and increase the risk of infection.

- Apply a thin layer of an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment to the cut to help prevent infection.

- Wear loose-fitting clothing to avoid putting pressure on the cut.

- Take an over-the-counter pain reliever to relieve pain and inflammation.

- Avoid activities that may cause the cut to reopen or become irritated.
