Brief Answer:
Possible anal fistula/abscess..need more information...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through the photos you provided and I admit that the quality was not good enough. However, from what I could saw, I noticed that most probably it is an anal fistula/abscess.
At the is point, I need to ask a few more questions:
- do you have pain? burning sensation?
- for how long have you noticed the sore?
- is there any discharge coming out?
- other symptoms you might be facing recently?
Looking forward to have the requested data in!

Brief Answer:
It looks like mycotic infection.
Detailed Answer:
Hi back!
Yes what you are experiencing may be even from herpes but most probably it's a skin infection.
It may be either an ingrown hair or a mycotic infection. My opinion based on the picture it looks like a mycotic infection, which is a very common complication of waxing.
If you were my patient I would recommended you canestan cream.
Wish you health!
