Suggest Treatment For A Lump In The Perianal Area

Had pimple like lump, about the size of a dime, below the skin, in the area behind my testicles and in front of my anus, in the perianal area. Had for about 1 to 2 weeks. Thought it was a pimple, so I kept squeezing it to pop it.
Finally, it popped and blood, only blood came out. Is about half the size now.

Hi
Welcome.
I have gone through your query.
It is difficult to diagnose without examination, so either I would suggest you to upload the pictures or see local doctor for examination.
It might be folliculitis, but need to be examined. I would suggest you not to squeeze it.
Hope this helps.
Take care
