What Causes Flesh-like, Painless Protuberance Through The Anus?
Hi, i have a problem. Today when i finished pooping, i wipe it i feel like something hanging from my anus. I tried to wash , and i can feel it really inside my anus. I was trying to pull it out but i can feel it connect with sth inside that i shouldnt pull out. It didnt hurt, didnt bleed or anything. Just poop was stuck around and that thing was hanging out my anus, I couldn t pull out then it came in now. I wondering is that hemorrhoids or tapeworm or parasite??? The string is like normal meat (human meat). can say the shape like a tube. Please help me!

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
The hanging growth like flap you describe seems to be a simple anal skin flap . It is non harmful . It is not associated with constipation,swelling,pain or infection &bleeding like piles.
It remains symptom less unless disturbed manually... trying to pluck it off ,pulling it hard...when it may swell,bleed &get infected.
*So let it be undisturbed.Only need is to keep it clean.
Thanks
