A but hard, and now it has a white dot on the tip. Its a bit painful, and causes extreme discomfort. Should I see my family physician? Preparation H and wipes aren t helping.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello dear
I understand your concern
Consult the general surgeon and get examined for the doctor for proper treatment.
Take following advises:
Hot FOMENTATION.
Stop pilex ointment
Apply ANOVATE ointment twice a day.
Once at bedtime and once after passing stool in morning.
Apply lignocaine ointment few minutes before going to pass stool.
Take a laxative like CREMAFFIN 15 ml at bedtime to make your stool soft.
Use treatment for the 3-4 week.
If not responds then local surgery is the treatment.
Hope this may help you
