Suggest Treatment For Tender Hard Lump On The Inner Wall Of My Rectum
Hi,I recently noticed a hard lump on the inner wall of my rectum. For a good while now I have felt a tender to the touch area on the outside (almost at the top of the crack) for want of a better word. It is now quite a lot more tender and I feel pressure inside my rectum as if I need to go but don t. Its also pretty uncomfortable to sit. I am gping tonsee a doc in a few days but thought I d ask about it anyway

hi.
based from your description, it could be a hemorrhoid, an anal polyp or fissure. it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for examination and clinical evaluation. other tumor types must also be ruled out. diagnostics and management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
