What Does An Itchy Lump Near The Anus Mean?
I have a pimple outside of the anis opening. It has been there for over a year. I had it checked by two gastroenterologist and and they said its nothing. It hurts and when I push on it , it seems hard. I also have terrible hemmeroids. They flare up when I eat certain foods. They itch terribly...the pimple just hurts like a cold sore. What is it?

Hi,
A pimple annoying you is external hemorrhoid in form of sentinel tag.
If severely symptomatic, I recommend getting it removed via laser therapy for permanent cure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
