Hi.. I got this bump in the anal area a week ago... first it hurt as if it was a pimple but the next day all I felt was a bump.. I'm 30 normal weight, normal BM don't have any health issues. The bump is hard or solid texture, I'm scared it could be hemorrhoids.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if the swelling is not painful or tender then it could be lymph node without the infection and if it is painful and tender then it could be abscess formation in this condition you will have to keep the condition under observation in my opinion clinical examination is must else it may not be the hemorrhoid unless it is being proved with clinical examination hope this information helps.
