Suggest Treatment For A Bump Near The Anus

I have a bump near my anus. It s tender to the touch or pressure, like a blister. I have not been sexually active for years. The bump appeared quickly. I only became aware of it because it is painful when I wipe the area for example after using the toilet.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely folliculitis. If you send a picture of it then it will be more helpful. Sits baths or hot fomentation on that area will be helpful. You can also apply glycerine magsulf and povidone iodine ointment till it burst. After bursting you can apply just povidone iodine ointment. Taking vitamin c supplements will get helpful to aid fast healing also.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
