either a hemorrhoid or an anal fissure, both can be painful.
normally, an anal fissure produces blood on the toilet paper after you wipe, and having a bowel movement is painful. sometimes, you can feel the fissure tear open again while having a movement; it’s kind of like a paper cut. it can open again easily and is very annoying.
normally, hemorrhoids don’t hurt during bowel movements, but can be itchy and can sometimes been seen coming outside the body with the bowel movement, and then going back in afterwards. sometimes, it can actually stay protruding and can be painful to get back in.
either way, going to the doc and letting him take a look is the best thing. they can give you a for sure diagnosis, and get you on some treatment to help relieve you. don’t be embarassed, it happens to a ton of people (from children to seniors) and it’s definitely not going to be the worst thing your doc has ever seen.
good luck, feel better!

either you caught that from a toilet seat, or you have been sexually active

Yeah I got mine since 15 and I’m in 30′s now so it’s normal. Both of my parents have them also. So don’t panic. There’s surgery for this but I also heard that it can come back. Avoid certain food and alcohol and you can live with this for the rest of your life but sometimes it can be a hassle when it flares up. I got mine, I think, cuz I rode my bike so much and rubbing against the seat. So try to avoid riding a bike but if you have to watch how you seat on your seat and get a wider seat so that you dont’ get one of those little ones that goes all the way up your butt cracks. Take care.
If it’s hemorroid then it won’t go away unless you get a surgery but like I said make sure the odds of not coming back is greater than it will.

Does not sound like a hemorrhoid to me. Sounds more like you are not keeping yourself clean..down there. Try handy-wipes

Yeah that might be what it is, and don’t worry it can happen to anyone at any age. Sometimes straining going to the bathroom or constipation can cause them but they’ll go away eventually. I know they’re a real pain though. Try preparation H, that will give you relief and help it to go away.
