What Is The Cause Of A Bump Near The Anus?

About a month ago I discovered a nickel sized purple bump right on the outside of my butt hole. It doesn't hurt but it is still there. Now for the past week or so I have had an uncomfortable feeling in my lower left abdomen. Any idea what these could be and should I get them checked out right away?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the swelling near the anal region may not be due to any infection but it could be nonspecific but it needs to be kept under observation because it may be cold abscess formation, second symptoms could be the colicky pain it may not be the serious condition or it may not be due to any illness you can wait for some time it will be fine sure and if not then you can see the doctor you need to keep the condition under observation hope this information helps.
