What is this? Should I be worried?

I had this lump on my lower back a couple of months ago. I don't know what it is. Before, when I was sitting or pressing it, there was a liquid that smelled awful going out of it. There was also blood with it. Then, the leakings stopped, but the lump is still there. Please, tell me what it is and what should I do.

Good morning,

Hard to know exactly what that is, but sounds like an infected sebaceous cyst. In any case, that warrants further investigation and you should see your primary care doctor to get this figured out.

Sincerely,
