Boil/pimple On The Crown Of My Anus, What Should I Do ?

Hello i am a 16 year old male and have a boil/pimple on the crown of my anus and its very painful when touched. Im not sure what to do. I asked around and some people told me to burst it and some others told me to leave it alone and it will go away. what would be the best course of action out of those two (2) options? Remember i can t see a doctor because i have no money and no medical plan.

Hello and welcome to healthcare forum.
After reading your problem it seems that you are suffering from perianal abscess, which may sometimes progress to anal fistula. So, i am sorry to say that you have to visit a doctor for your problem and after proper examination he will advice you either antibiotic treatment or incision and drainage of abscess.
Best wishes for your health.
