Hello
This type of flesh or bump near the anus may be :
1 Hemorrhoids , as this is most common in any age group .Diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination by a surgeon.
2 Fissure in anus is another most common cause of such type flesh with mucus presence.
3 Frunculosis ,in this patient feel some pain in this type of bump or mass of flesh .
In any condition ,this is not a serious condition and not a cause of concern .
But consultation with a surgeon is important so that exact diagnosis can be established.
Good luck.
