I've noticed a small bump or pimple right at the opening of my anus for the past couple of days, and it's quite painful and uncomfortable. I'm wondering if I need to see someone in the gastroenterology department or if there's another type of specialist I should consider. Any advice on what this might be and whom I should consult?
