Pain is likely for 24 to 48 hours after rubber band ligation. You may use acetaminophen (if there no h/o of drug allergy) and sit in a shallow tub of warm water (sitz bath) for 15 minutes at a time to relieve discomfort. the pain is persistent, would recommend you to meet the doctor.
if lump is felt, better meet the doctor and get examined
