I have piles but no pain so far and my doctor recommended surgery should I consider it right away or try medication first to see if it helps

It's generally recommended to try less invasive treatments like medication before considering surgery for piles, even if your doctor recommended it. If you're not experiencing significant pain or complications, a course of medication might resolve the issue without the need for surgery. However, it's crucial to discuss your concerns and treatment options with your doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific case.

Should I be concerned about this bump? Do you think the antibiotic will help, or is there something else I should be doing? What's going on here?

I'm having some pretty bad anal pain that started a couple of days ago, and it came on out of nowhere. I noticed the area is a bit hard on one side, and it's really painful. It's making sitting and doing any tough tasks really difficult. Could you tell me what might be causing this and what I can do about it? I'm pretty uncomfortable and could really use some advice.

take rest & drink oral fluids.
