General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Your short history of something coming out of anus of the size of a cherry with soreness of the area indicate the following:
Prolapsed pile.
Can be a polyp.
This can be diagnosed by the following:
Ano-proctoscopy preferably by a General Surgeon will give the exact cause and thus gives plan of management.
If a polyp is present it needs to be excised.
If pile is present and not reducible then this probably needs to be operated.
Also needed at the moment is to get this reduced into anus to reduce the pain and further complications.
Sitz bath in a tub with warm water.
Laxatives to keep the stools soft.
Any further management as per the findings.

Take care.
Dr. T. Chandrakant.
