I started feeling it a couple of days ago because it gets uncomfortable when I tighten around there. It doesn't hurt, just kind of feels off. I even took a picture just in case, but I'm not sure what it is. Also, no bloody stool or anything like that. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm experiencing this strange pain in my bottom when I sit for a long time. It really burns, but interestingly, when I stand, run, or sleep, the pain goes away. I don't feel any pain or see blood when I go to the toilet, although I am dealing with a little constipation. There's no blood or pus in my stool either. Some people are telling me it might be piles, others say it could be fissures or maybe even a fistula. I'm really confused and would appreciate some guidance on what this might be.
