external hemorrhoids?
I feel this lump near my rectum last week… i carefully examine it and it’s still the same size.
right now it’s now hurting when i touch it nor any signs of blood when releasing my bowel or showing on toilet paper. Nor it doesn’t itch.
Is this External Hemorrhoids? or something else? Should I go to doctor?
the only reason why i think it might be hemorrhoids is because it’s a lump — that’s all.
they say get preparation H to solve this?

Hemorrhoids or Piles as they are often called in the UK, are swellings on the inside of the anal canal, the short, muscular tube that connects the rectum with the anus. They are round swellings that can reach the size of a grape. They are not varicose veins. Here are few of the questions frequently asked about hemorrhoids - responses are by other readers.

PrepH is probably the best as long as they aren’t annoying you.
Go to the Doctor…if you wait to see you will be very sorry!!!
i had the same thing happen to me… i dipped mine in acetone and held a match to it.
tell me how it works out
good luck!
Prep H or tucks. Put them in the fridge and use them. I had them after having a baby. And mine didn’t itch nor bleed…..until later. But it does sound like that. But a doctor could tell you for sure of course.
think it could be piles?
Go get it checked by a Dr., my friend had the same and it got infected. It was a polyp.
Sounds like it to me. Basically hemorrhoids are just varicose veins in your rectum. Preperation H cream or pessaries will ease the swelling and should sort it out. If they bleed or itch or become very painful then go and see your GP xxxx
Preparation H will only relieve the pain and itching. If it is a hemorrhoid, it will tend to become itchy, painful, and bleed when it is in inflamed. If non of this signs are present, then I would consult a doctor to confirm what you have going on. If the signs are present, then consult a laser removal center to have it permanently removed.
It could very well be a hemorrhoid but possibly not. You need a doctor to check it out. Any lump needs to be checked out.
Hemorrhoids are harmless but sometimes can be aggravating! Only use Preparation H if your doctor confirms it is hemorrhoid. Try not to strain when moving your bowels this will aggravate it and could cause more. First the doctor.
I hope I have helped you! Take care of it.
