Suggest Treatment For Small Painful Lumps On The Rectal Area

While inserting a suppository I felt hard pebble sized lumps about three or four in my rectum. They do not come loose easily. I recently went to ER because of really bad bloating, they sent me home with a severe back-up due to constipation as the cause, but I have chronic diarrhea. Recommended the following. Which I have been trying for the past week. 1st a high fiber diet for past four days, no changes. More water intake no changes except Bloating, yesterday and today a suppository with still no solid bowel, a glass of warm water in the morning with half a lemon for past three days, no changes..... I exercise regularly, I drink water (never enough) I eat healthy, I m at my wits end! Are the pebble feeling things a concern?

General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

based from your description, it could be a hemorrhoid, anal polyp or fissure. it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for clinical evaluation. diagnostics (such as proctoscopy) and management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly.

hope this helps.

good day!!
