I'm having some pain when I poop, and I've noticed there's a mole or something that has popped up near my butt hole. It's not bleeding, but I'm worried. What could it be? Is this something I should be concerned about?

It sounds like you may have developed a hemorrhoid or a skin tag near the anal area. While it's not uncommon, I recommend seeing a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and to discuss potential treatment options, especially if the pain persists.

I've been having pain in the anal area and lower backside for about a month now, especially during bowel movements. A BAMS doctor diagnosed it as internal piles. Is there a way to treat this without surgery? How long would it take to heal and are there any side effects to worry about?

dermat opinion is advised.

I've been dealing with piles for a while now and my doctor recommended surgery but I'm really nervous about it - is surgery the only option or are there other treatments I could try first

For advanced cases (Grade III and IV) or when non-surgical methods fail, surgical intervention may be the best option. Common surgical procedures include: Hemorrhoidectomy: This involves the complete removal of hemorrhoids and is highly effective for severe cases.

I've been having severe pain in my anus and was told it's a fistula and fissure. The pain was so bad that there was blood with my stool for four days, but after some treatment, the pain eased up. Now I'm noticing pus keeps coming out regularly. I'm really confused about whether this can heal with medicine or if surgery is the only option. What would be the best treatment for this?

Fat reduction surgeries like liposuction carry risks like contour irregularities and anesthesia complications; cost varies but non-surgical options like cryolipolysis exist.
