What Causes A Lump On The Anus?

I have a bump on my anal area and it has been here for a week and a half. I don't think it's a boil because it's not hotter than the rest of my anus. What are some quick home remedies to get rid of it and what signs should I really be looking at to tell the difference?

Respected user , Hi

Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly .

* This seems more likely to be a sentinel skin tag or hemorrhoid .

* Needs confirmation with clinical examination .

* Remedies for better outcome
- Soft, light diet to get smooth bowel evacuations .
- Avoid oily , spicy , non veg stuffs .
- Sitz bath ( sitting in tub filled with lukewarm water 10 min each 3 times
a day ) help a lot .

Hope this clears your query .
