Suggest Treatment For A Lump On The Buttocks

I have a red, painful, hard lump at the very top of my butt crack. No puss. Really concerned as it has been getting more painful over the last couple days. I have been doing some DIY recently and was sitting on hard decking for a day while painting. The symptoms started shortly after. It is about an inch in length and sore to the touch. Please help, advise what it might be and whether I need to see and doctor? Thanks
