What Causes An Infected Lump Near The Anus?

I have a small pea sized lump near my anus hole.. it started out as a puss filled pimple, I was able to pop it every day and yellow puss would come out. I haven t gotten it checked out as I m scared, and I haven t even had a Pap test done before as I m nervous for doctors to go down there.. but I m getting very concerned; I ve had this for about 3 months now and every time I pop it a lot of blood comes out.. sometimes it s itchy but it doesn t hurt or anything when I wipe down there.. do you have any idea of what this might be? Or any advice on how to fix this without seeing a doctor right away?? Thank you

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to folliculitis. Antibiotic therapy will be required. You can do hot fomentation and apply Neosporin triple antibiotic cream.
Thanks
