What Is The Small Lump On The Right Side Of My Sphincter Muscle?

I have a small lump on the right side of my spinchter muscle. It does'nt hurt but I have noticed it about a couple weeks ago. I feel it when I shower and clean my area with my fingers.

I have no pain but feel the size of thumb and does not bleed.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read your clear history of lump on the right side of your anal sphincter muscle of the size of the a thumb which does not bleed or cause any pain can be due to:
Papiloma
Lipoma
Propsed pile
Codylomata

I would advise you the following :
Since I can not actually see the lump or the photograph, I would advise you to be physically examined by a Surgeon.
Colonoscopy is mandatory in all such cases.

The treatment will most probably be surgical for two reasons:
1. get rid of the disease
2. get an exact diagnosis.

So go ahead with the treatment as advised by your Surgeon on investigations
I find this answer helpful
