Answered by Dr. Rishi (19 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
It could be a Hemorrhoid or a Papilloma.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to Health Care Magic and Thanks for your question.
If the lump is close to the anal opening it is likely to be an external Hemorrhoid and it is a little away from it then it is probably a wart or a Papilloma.
Without seeing it is difficult to say what it is.
I suggest you see a Surgeon who can examine you and let you know what it is.
If it is away from the verge then a simple surgery to remove it would be pertinent.
If its a Hemorrhoid and you have no problems from it then you need not get it operated.
Take care and do let me know if there are any queries on this issue.
Regards,
Dr Rishi, New XXXXXXX XXXXXXX
