Brief Answer:
Get it examined!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this anal growth. Though this could be a hemorrhoid, the size and duration warrants that they should be immediately evaluated an investigated. We must rule out any other potential causes if concern like warts before settling with the less concerning hemorrhoids. In my opinion, start with with primary care doctor and carry on from there.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
