HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is likely piles/ hemorrhoids.
The anovate cream would not be helpful for hemorrhoids.
Hemorrhoids would worsen with straining so you would need to try not to strain. The use of high fiber diet and fluids would help. A stool softener, if the stool is still hard, may also help for a few days.
Sitz baths and the use of oral pain killers would also help with your discomfort.
I hope this helps
