The buttons on the buttocks

• are sometimes unsightly, but rest assured, they are also common. 
• Here are the most important reasons for buttons on the buttocks.
•  First, it may be a bacterium called staphylococcus. It is distinguished by presenting molecules in a cluster. This can cause fevers, boils or even sepsis and therefore can be more or less serious.
•  It can be the occlusion of the skin and therefore of the hair folliculitis. This is a small infection of the skin of the buttocks that often happens when the sitting position is kept long and often. These little white pimples are actually due to ingrown hairs.

• The most general case is the application of an antibiotic ointment like Flucidine creame.
• Be careful of the toilet paper you use. It's a trend to have colored paper matched to your toilet, but in reality, if you have gluteal acne, it is better to buy toilet paper without perfume or dye to avoid irritation.
• Of course, you should never ever pop a button on your buttocks. Not elsewhere, by the way! Drilling a pimple will leave scars on your butt and most importantly will spread the bacteria over even larger areas. So hold on!
• Finally, think about limiting the damage from the inside. Unsurprisingly, drinking water is very good for the skin. So when you have acne no matter what part of the body, it is important to hydrate well.
• It is also necessary to eat balanced by limiting as much as possible the contributions in carbohydrates and lipids.
• Wear loose clothing and especially in soft materials such as cotton (especially for your underwear!).
