Watch and wait: It may be a small external hemorrhoid that may thrombose and get scarred and become unnoticeable with time. It may also be a skin tag associated with an anal fissure, though the later is usually painful. You may wait to see if it gets better on its own. If it becomes painful or bleeds, you should see your doctor.

Anal fissure : a bump near the anal opening that is not painful and does not bleed most likely represent a healed anal fissure. The best way to fully assess the lesion is to perform a physical exam. You may get a different point of view from other healthtap physicians
