Swelling in anus hole
"18 months ago, I had a smooth swelling near my anus.( image attached) When touched, it felt smooth like a boiled bubble. About 6 months ago, it disappeared automatically on its own. Now, it has appeared again. What could be the reason for this, and what type of condition might it be? I do not have any other symptoms such as blood in stool, constipation, etc."
