Suggest Treatment For A Lump On The Anus
I have a lump outside of my anus it looks purple and looks like it could be a pile which is just outside the anus. I have 2 one which looks like it s burst and is slowly healing and another one which looks the same but hasn t burst, I ve had it for a long time (around 2 months) when I tried pushing it back inside it popped. I have tried over counter pile cream. I do suffer with constipation and don t regualry empty my bowels and occasionally get blood from it, could it be a pile? When it does bleed I can see the blood coming from that one area. I have tried taking a stool softner this week which has helped as I haven t bled anything. I don t know what to do to help it heal.

Consult surgeon and get examined.

Avoid constipation.
Take plenty of water.
Ok and take care.
