What Do Lumps Around The Anus Indicate?

hi i've found some small painless lumps near my back passage - i had one a couple of months ago which i thought was just a spot and didn't worry about but then yesterday i realised it is still there and another one has popped up about 1cm away from it. they're about 0.5cm in size and feel as though i could pull them off (although i can't/wouldn't)

Hello,

The most possible reason for lumps around the anus with the presentation is external hemorrhoid (sentinel tag). Needs confirmation with clinical examination or just take a photo picture and send it in the attachment at follow up session.



Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
