What Causes A Bump Near The Anus In A Child?

Hi my 6 month old has a bump on her bottom close to her butt hole (sorry). Its not colored it looks almost like a mole but is not dark brown. Its normal skin color. I just noticed it while putting butt paste on her a little bit ago. Should I be concerned? It doesn t seem to bother her when I touch it

Its anal wart. You dont need to bother about it. It will not cause any problem. Just notice if its increasing in size or number. If ever it changes in colour or become painful consult pediatrician.
