Brief Answer:
Constipation needs to be taken care of.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through your query and understand your concerns. It seems that you have constipation. This constipation may eventually lead to hemorrhoids (as the images indicate).

My suggestions would be to:
* Avoid long gaps between meals. Take small but frequent meals.
* Spicy food has to be avoided.
* It is very important to exercise regularly.
* High dietary fiber intake has to be ensured. Plenty of green leafy vegetables are to be taken. Fiber supplements like psyllium husk can also be taken along. This has to be taken daily at dinner irrespective of whether the problems are present.
* Please go through the following for a list of fiber rich foods:

Hopefully that would help.

It is possible to get a warm sensation there but a clinical examination would be needed to comment whether anything else seems to be the cause.
