What Causes Lump Next To Anus After Starting Cipro And Birth Control?
I started taking a birth control pill for the hormones yesterday and cipro for a urinary tract infection. Today I have a big hard lump the size of the end of my thumb next to my anus under the skin. A side effect of the medicines is blood clots. I have had some diarrhea with the cipro. What is the lump do you think?

Hi,
Is the lump painful? Is there any bleeding? This is unlikely related to Cipro / pills. A lump there may be a perianal abscess (will be painful) or a hemorrhoid. I would recommend getting it examined with your doctor, preferably a surgeon.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
