How To Treat A Red Lump In The Anus?
My girlfriend has discovered during defecation something about 20cm long red thing that was hanging from her ass! We can not know what could be, and it has been a few days always very hungry and they suspected that it related to? Do we go to the hospital? Excuse me but I do not speak English very well so I've translated it with Google. Since I can not reach a German doctor at this time on the Internet

Hello!
Thank you for the query.
Most likely she has a hemorrhoid. Due to enlarged veins in the rectum area a lump appears which can be visible outside the rectum. This is not an urgent condition, however it wont go away by itself or with medicines.
That is why I suggest her to consult a surgeon and consider removal of this lump.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
