Suggest Treatment For Blood In Stool

In the past two weeks I have had blood in my toilet after a bowel movement. I have noticed a large bump or lump on the side of the outside of my rectum. Was wondering, based on the information at hand, if it sounds like hemmroids or something more serious?

Hi, thank you for asking on HCM!

Based on your introduction this are hemorrhoids.

Further evaluation as inspection and digital examination of rectum is needed to set properly the diagnosis.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.
