Hemorrhoid?! (No pics don't worry lol)

Don't worry I'll spare you to TMI picture. I'll try to describe it the best I can (which is still TMI lol). I have like a ball about the size of my fingertip right on the outside of my butthole. 🤦‍♀️It was kinda sore for the first couple days but now I don't even feel it (but it's still there). It never itched or anything. I've had one of these once before and it went away after a while. I got this about a week ago after I was having some stomach problems after eating really spicy food multiple days in a row. To just be upfront with it, I pooped quite a lot. Could this be a hemorrhoid? I'm really scared of it to be honest. 😭
