General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi dear, I have gone through your case and I can understand your concern. The lump you noticed are hemorrhoids (HEM-uh-roids), also called piles, are swollen and inflamed veins in your anus and lower rectum, due to constipation. Take senna tea for short term relief of constipation, practice good hygiene, hydrocortisone for topical use can relieve pain and itching, at least temporarily. Eat food enriched en fibers, drink plenty of fluids 6-8 glasses daily, do exercises to promote bowel movements. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback and five star rating, to help me assist you in a better way. Click at 'I Find This Answer Helpful too'.
