What Causes Movable Lump Inside Rectum?
Question: hi there I messaged a few days ago about haveing pressure all the time like I need to go to the bathroom but I'm not constipated, I had found a firm movable lump inside my rectum, well I just figured out the lump is actually inside my vagina it is quite hard and it is pushing through my the wall of my anus and that's the lump I could feel I had a hysterscope d and c and also laparoscope done and endometriosis removed from my ovaries uterus some organs,this was 7 weeks ago, I thought it went well as some of my pain had subsided but now it's coming back and that lump is worrying what do you think it could be?
Brief Answer:
Need further investigations for final diagnosis.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I understand your concern.
1. Please take note that vagina and rectum are reporting nearby organs separated by only one wall.
Lumps of rectum can be taken by mistake as vaginal lumps and vice -versa.
2. That's why further investigations are advised to determine the final diagnosis:
- anoscopy and colonoscopy
- colposcopy
- and of course, a good physical examination by og specialist first followed by proctologist examination
For the moment, try to relax and stay calm until further examination. Avoid having sex until improvement.
Hope it answered toyour question.

I need to go see my gyno but it could take a few weeks to get into see him as he is usually pretty booked out, if I go to my local gp do you think they will be able to help in the mean time because it's been causing alot of pressure and pain with it, I was nearly in crying last night because it was so uncomfortable I usually have a high pain threshold but it is exstreemly frustrating and uncomfortable :(
Brief Answer:
Go to ER or family doctor. ...
Detailed Answer:
Hi back my dear,
Your case is emergency and requires immediate evaluation and treatment.
So, if you can't manage to see a gyno as soon as possible, then should :
- see you family doctor hoping he/she will book an immediate appointment with gyno
- or can go to ER for immediate evaluation and treatment especially when it comes to easing the pain.
Hope it helped!
