HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is possible that the lesion may be due to infection in that area. This may be in the form of an abscess ( a localized collection of pus).
Other causes of pain in the anal region would be a fissure which is a small split or tear in this region.

You may want to consider consulting a general surgeon who may be able to help you determine the cause of the pain.

The treatment would depend on the cause. An abscess would need to be incised .
An anal fissure is treated mainly with supportive treatment which would help it to heal.

I hope this helps
