Brief Answer: can be a perianal abscess Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for writing to HCM. Your symptoms are very similar to one presenting with a perianal abscess, though you are not having any fever. But that can be there if the abscess is a small one. I would suggest that you show to a surgeon for a physical examination as further management will depend upon the clinical findings. Till you show to one, you may take a painkiller for symptomatic relief. I guess you are not having any constipation or bleeding from there. As if it is there it can even be a fissure. But for this too a clinical confirmation is a must. Hope i have been helpful. Dr. Ashish Verma
