Suggest Treatment For Anal Fissure
Question: Hello,
I have a small bump between my anus and vagina, that I really only notice when I wipe. There is some blood when I wipe, but very minimal; no blood in stool. I have been putting witch XXXXXXX on it, as I thought it may be a hemorrhoid, and the pain/itching has stopped but the small, hard bump is still there. It is rather long, almost like a string between anus and vagina. I am 23 years old.
