Brief Answer:
You can visit a general physician first.

Detailed Answer:

Hi, Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’.

Thanks for your query.

You can see a general physician first, try soft and high fiber diet and sitz bath. If it still persists then you can meet a proctologist.

I hope this answered your query.

Take care.
