I have a lump under my skin near my bum that's the size of a pea. should i be worried?

Most likely...: No. First thing that comes to mind would be a simple skin cyst. These are very common. Sometimes they can get infected and become larger and painful. So might be worth getting it checked out at next doctor's appointment.
