Hi XXXXXXX
I am sorry to hear about your troubles. From your description and the attached photo, I suspect you have a hemorrhoid. I suggest you try with sitz baths, doloproct creme, over the counter pain killers and laxatives. If this does not work or if it worsens, you should see a general surgeon.

Brief Answer:
No need to see a doctor as of now
Detailed Answer:
Hi again XXXXXXX
The cause(s) of haemorrhoids is not fully understood. Constipation may play a role.
At the moment, it is fine to try the suggested treatment before you see a doctor:
1. Apply Doloproct-creme to the anus in a thin layer twice a day for two weeks.
2. Make a sitz bath once a day (before applying Doloproct creme).
3. Use aspirin 500mg, two pills, three times a day for a week.
4. NSAID (like Acetaminophen/Tylenol) 500mg, three times a day for a week.
5. Keep your stools soft, type 4 on the bristol stool chart. If your stools are harder, try psyllium seeds or a mild laxative, like small amounts of Movicol.
Hope this helps. Please keep me posted.
