Hello
Obviously prolong sitting in chair or work out without proper care and changing of postures can lead to cracking of the skin around the anus or rectum leading to formation of fissures or hemorrhoids

Since I can't physically examine you to get more clues so In my opinion you should see a doctor for clinical and per rectal examination to confirm the diagnosis

I see patients with similar complaints in my clinic and I would advise them to avoid constipation by taking laxatives or stool softening agents like lactulose or liquid paraffin
Avoid prolonged sitting in one posture
Say no to smoking and alcohol
Have lots of dietary fibers and fresh fruits or vegetables to keep colon healthy.
lignocaine ointment can be applied for the pain
site bath twice daily will definitely help you

Hope this answers your question
Wish you good health
