A bump between scrotum and anus

Hello.

About a couple days ago I was showering and found a small bump (about 0.2 inch in length) in perianal area on my scrotum just behind testicles (but not too close though). It is flesh-colored, feels quite soft, doesn't bleed or hurt, and seems to be attached to the skin of the scrotum (it doesn't go deeper). I did some research on-line on this, but all the information I've got seems rather confusing. Could it be cancer, or is it some sort of genital wart, or a skin tag?


Thank you very much in advance.
I look forward to your reply.

Yours sincerely,

Alex.

could be just a cyst, my husband had something similiar, the doc lanced his and he did epsom salt baths few times a day for approx a week.
Have your doc check it out, to get a proper diagnosis
