Brief Answer:
It could be due to Anal Fissure

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Pain in the anal.region after passage of stool is due to Anal Fissure.Due to.hard stool,the inner lining of the Anal canal gets damaged leading to a crack inside.It causes pain.
You should take high fiber diet,drink plenty of liquids.
Please eat fresh fruits and vegetables.
Your stool should be soft.
The pain will come down gradually.
I prescribe Ointment containing Diltiazem to few patients with Anal Fissure.
Nothing to worry.
Hope I answered your query.If you have any questions,I will clarify further.
Wish you good health
Regards

Brief Answer:
It could be Sentinel pile

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Sentinel pile is a skin tag which is seen outside the anus.It is not a true Pile.It occurs in Anal Fissure.
In some cases of piles,one pile will get Thrombosed with a blood clot and becomes painful.
These two conditions will be differentiated by Clinical examination only.Please consult a General Surgeon or a Colorectal surgeon and proceed further.
Wish you speedy recovery
Regards
