Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

First get your anal examination along with proctoscopic examination...
It might help in revealing ulcer, piles , fissure or proctitis like inflammation condition...
For that straining at stool and constipation avoided....
Excess spicy food avoided.
Make anal area clean with warm water ...
More water taken....

Second dysentery also has to be ruled out by stool examination....
If shows pus cells then antibiotic needed.
If shows ameba eggs then metronidazole given....

Your anal area examination if shows mass or any suscipician growth then biopsy taken to rule out malignancy as you have positive malignancy history...

If still cause not identifiable USG done and subsequentially colonoscopy if needed.

Hope your concern solved.

Take care.
