Hi and thanks for the query,
Its important to know what the hard lump is all about. the commonest should be a hemorroid. However, other rare causes like cold abscesses and warts should not be underrated. Other symptoms like pain, blood in stool and fever are important to note.
A clinical review associated with an endoscopic evaluation called a recto sigmoidoscopy could be very useful in orienting diagnoses, further evaluative tests and management. I suggest you consult your gastroenterologist around. Kind regards,
Bain LE, MD.
