Hello and thank you for sending the question
Detailed Answer:
thanks for sending the question.
There are couple of considerations in this type of setting. this could be a hemorrhoid. Or this could possibly be an infection.
I would suggest a couple of things. First of all I would suggest that you try to take a warm bath and sit in the bathtub for about 30 minutes at least twice per day for the next several days. this will help to soothe the pain hopefully.
Also you might try to buy some hemorrhoid cream of the pharmacy. I would put this on a couple of times per day. if this is a hemorrhoid it might take a few months for to completely go away. You want to also increase fiber in your diet to make sure your bowel movements are soft and regular.
Thanks again for sending your question. Please let me know if you have any additional specific concerns to review.
