What Could Whitish, Fleshy Bump Near Anus Be?
I just noticed a white-ish, flesh-colored bump right near my anus. I am 20 years old and just got over a nasty sickness which included a lot of vomiting and diarrhea. The bump is only uncomfortable when touched. I can really see it when I spread my cheeks and it is movable and more hard than soft. It kind of looks blister-like but I do not think it has any fluid in there.

Hi
I have gone through your complaints and it seems to be folliculitis which is inflammation of the hair follicle.
I would recommend you to apply topical antibiotic like neosporin ointment on the affected area twice daily for 5-7 days.
