Thrombosed?: At your age I would expect the most likely reason for the pain etc is that a hemorrhoid is thrombosed. While heat packs and conservative management could be tried based on my experience once the diagnosis is confirmed by an exam, surgical incision and drainage is the most effective solution. Of course, prevention of hemorrhoids is good idea as well.
