What Causes An Itchy Lump On The Anus?

Hi I have a small lump on the edge of my anus and have incredible itching around the anus mainly at night. When the itching starts I cannot stop until generally bleeding occurs. Also with this comes a clear sticky fluid as I scratch the affected area. Please advise. MikeP
