What Causes Bleeding Beside The Rectum?

I have had two fistula surgeries and have been doing well for 7 months. Today I noticed a little place outside of my rectum (almost beside it) that felt a little soft or puffy. Tonight it bled out. I am scared to death it the start of another fistula. However reading on line, it seems it could be an external hemrroid. What do you think it sounds like?
