Brief Answer:
Likely to be haematoma

Detailed Answer:
Dear Ms

Going by description of it, possibility of perianal haematoma needs to be considered. As it is not ripe, it will slowly undergo liquefaction and get absorbed.

Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you

Take Care

Regards
Shobha
