Hello.
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com.
I understand your concern. You have pain in the "outer rectum" which means you have anal pain. There can be many causes for this.
I would require additional details in order to provide a definitive opinion.
So I request you to please answer each of these questions.
1. Please mention your gender.
2. You have mentioned that the pain is present only on certain seated positions. Can you please specify these positions?
3. Any pain/ burning/ blood while passing stools? Any change in bowel movements?
4. Do you have any tender spots or bumps in and around that area?
5. How long have you been having this pain?
6. Have you taken any treatment measures?
Awaiting your response,
Regards.

Hello.
Except the area under your finger, everything looks normal.
You seem to be developing folliculitis (a boil) in that area. It is a bacterial infection of the hair follicle and is quite common.
It usually heals on its own. You can apply an OTC topical antibiotic like Neosporin Original Ointment over that spot, 3-4 times daily to hasten recovery. Try to avoid sitting on that spot until it heals which should be in a couple of days.
Please also keep the surrounding area clean and dry.
I hope this was helpful. Let me know if I can assist you any further.
Regards.
