Brief Answer:
As explained below.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I have gone through the details and image. It looks like a perianal abscess. It may require incision and drainage after an examination by a surgeon. You will require a dose of antibiotics.

I hope this answered your query.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

You can wait till the morning but don't delay it any further. You can take painkillers such as Tab. Ibuprofen or Dolo twice daily. Sitz bath that is sitting in a lukewarm water for 20 mins may help.

I hope this answered your query.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

It is not hot too touch and it’s soft, would this still be the case? Do I need to go to the emergency or could this wait until the morning?

Thank you
