Boils on baby butt

Hi my LO is one month old and has this lump on his butt. I googled and it seems like it's a boil?? Any idea if this is serious or whether I need to bring him to the doctor??

Is that the vaccine injection site? If so it's normal to have a lump there, you don't have to do anything about it. If there's some pus or it looks inflamed then you can check with doctor

sometimes nothing to worry, but at times may need surgery..incision and drainage..so, better to visit doctor asap

Don't squeeze the boil. Get treatments to get rid of bacteria on the skin.

I'll monitor and bring to doctor if it does not go off

Check with doctor!
