Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Most likely you are dealing with hemorrhoid. Its a kind of enlarged vein in the rectum area. It can be painless however in case of inflammation the pain can appear. You may also have some trace of blood on the stool or toilet paper.
I suggest you to consult a surgeon with this issue. Some small surgery might be helpful.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
I find this answer helpful
