I've noticed this flesh-like growth outside my anus, and it's been really difficult and uncomfortable to deal with. Can it be cured? Blood is also coming from the area near the anus and the fleshy part. What could this be, and how can I get this resolved?

Question

I'm really concerned about my situation. I think I might have piles, but I haven't seen a doctor yet. I've been using Anovate for about 78 months, and it used to help with the pain. However, since coming abroad and having to walk a lot, the pain has become unbearable, especially when walking, and now I can feel a bump in my anus. There's also some bleeding when I pass stool. I'm planning to return to India in a week, but the pain is getting too much to handle, and it's hard to walk. I'm using stool softeners, but they're not really helping, and the bump just seems to be getting bigger. Anovate isnt working anymore, and I'm not sure what else I can do until I get back. Can you advise me on how to manage this until I can see a doctor?

Question

I've been dealing with really bad bleeding from piles since giving birth, and I'm currently breastfeeding my 3-month-old. Can I safely use factu ointment, along with magnesium sulphate powder and glycerin? What else can I do to stop the bleeding?

Question

My husband has been having a really bad pain near his anal area. We noticed what seems like a skin tag. It's making it hard for him to sit comfortably and also, it becomes quite problematic during bowel movements. Could it be something more serious, or just a skin tag causing this much trouble? What should we do from here?
