I'm dealing with this small painful lump that popped up after having a bout of loose motions. It hurts, especially when I'm sitting or if I touch it, and it's really close to my anus. Any advice on how I can make it go away faster?

I've been dealing with thrombosed piles for about 15 days and also have 1st grade piles. Doctors recommended surgery but I'm wondering if there are any medications that could help instead

While surgery might be recommended for thrombosed hemorrhoids and first-degree piles, several non-surgical options, including medications, can help manage symptoms and potentially resolve the issue without surgery. Thrombosed hemorrhoids often resolve on their own within a few weeks.
