I don't know?: Hemorrhoids? Anal warts? There are a # of possible causes. The best way to get an accurate diagnosis would be dermatological evaluation.

A member asked:

I have a small bump on the skin near my anus opening, on the outside. It's tender to touch & the skin covering it seems thin. It grew in one day. Might it be a simple bump that will go away on its own, or an abcess that will require draining?
