Painful swollen lump near anus

I have developed a painful swollen lump near the anal opening. The pain is present while passing stool and I also experience pain even while passing gas. Sitting for long periods makes the discomfort more noticeable. I noticed the swelling recently and it is tender to touch. I have attached a photo of the affected area for reference. I would like to know what could be causing this pain and swelling, whether it requires an in-person examination, and what tests or treatment may be needed. I have started increasing my water intake and eating fiber-rich foods to keep my stools soft. I have not attempted any treatment other than maintaining hygiene. Please advise on the seriousness of this problem and whether I should consult a general surgeon or another specialist.

Burps And low bp

As soon as I drink water or eat something I'm getting burps immediately, getting stools daily but feels like incomplete evacuation and since 2-3 days my bp is around 95/65. My b12 is 155 Iron is 43 Hb is 11.5 Rbc 3.69 Calcium 7.81 ESR 26 Rest cbc, lft, kft, thyroid profile, lipid profile were fine. I took iron and b12 tablets for 20-25 days but there is no increment. I tested for celiac disease too but it's negative. What's causing this burp and low bp? Is it the gut issues or heart issue?
