I'm a T9 para and have been for 7.5 years. For probably a good 4 to 5 years I've had what looks like a bruise on my left butt cheak where the pressure would be from sitting. It doesn't seem to get better and it doesn't seem to get worse. Any suggestions on what it may be or how to fix it besides staying in bed for the next month??? Thanks - Nick

I had something on my left heal that looked like what i thougth was a pressure sore but it was dark an after months of it doing nothing i got it checked out, it turned out to be a dry blood blister. the Dr just pulled it off. I felt stupid an was kind of pissed cuz i didn't were shoes for like 5 mounths, but all is well

It’s good that you are treating it with suspicion.
It may be nothing, like a remnant of some earlier stress that you’ve recovered from.
On the other hand, it might be an early warning.
If it does improve when you are off it for some time, I would read that as being something that needs to be healed.
But if you’re off it for a month and it looks the same you might feel like that was wasted time.
It’s your risk and for the last four years it appears to be paying off. But who knows?

Unless you plan on sending pictures ( okay by me), you should let an MD look at it.

The first is probably your best bet, but not as much fun for the rest of us.
