Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.

Skin growth around anus region that may be external hemorroid.
Hemortoid is dilated vein so excessive straining may cause bleeding in stool.

Check your stool and do stool examination test for diagnosis.

Do anaorectal examination for checking external hemorroid.
Sometime with external hemorroid internal hemorroids are also present .

While eating spicy foods or constipation problem may worsen the hemorrhoids.
Drink more water.
Stool softner can use in constipation problem.

Avoid excessive straining.
Eat fresh fruits and green vegetables.

Wish you a good health.
Take care.
Thank you very much.
