Answer
: Dear Jennifer A lump, or a mass of of tissue near your anus is an indication of
external hemorrhoids. You may also notice pain, bleeding, or itching
in that area after a bowel movement. Sometimes hemorrhoids disappear
on their own, especially if you change your diet to include lots of
fibre and water and exercise regularly. But an anal bump can also be a
sign of anal fissure. It is always better to check with your doctor if
you have a doubt. You can ask for a proctologist or a gastroenterologist at your local hospital. |
