Soft red lump near anus?

I have had this soft red lump near my anus for years now. I don’t really have money for surgery so I never bothered about it, but recently (about a month ago) it has popped and the wound won't heal until now. What is this and what should I do?

I cannot make a diagnosis from a photo, but it might be a boil or other skin infection.
