Question

I've noticed a small bump or boil on the outside of my anus that showed up out of nowhere. It's been around for four days and hasn't gotten any smaller. I came across some info online, and it seems like it could be either piles or a hemorrhoid. I'm worried because I'm not sure which it is or what I should do next. Any advice or suggestions would really help.
