What Causes Red And Hard Bump On Anus?

Hi, My name is Justin. I have a little bump on my anus, close to the outside edge of my anus. Beginning from the little red bump there is a ridge of dark skin heading directly away from the bump. The skin on this ridge and around the bump in my anus feels hard, slightly rougher, or a bit tough. This ridge and bump have been there for over a month, and I thought the bump and ridge may go away after time - they hasn t. When I defacate, I ll wipe and this ridge/bump will sometime bleed. Do you know what it is?
