Hi,
Based on the given history you seem to be suffering from fistula in ano (anal canal). It needs to removed surgically (fistulotomy) as it rarely heals if left untreated. I would advise you to consult a surgeon for proper clinical examination and some tests such as fistulogram or an ultrasound to determine its actual tract and openings.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
