I'm really concerned about something I've been experiencing for the past six months. Every morning during bowel movements, I feel like something is getting stuck at the end of my anal area. Today, I took a picture of my anal region and noticed a swelling in one corner that seems like it might be a sentinel pile fissure. What could this possibly be, and what should I do next?

For rib pain, consider consulting:

  1. General Physician (GP) for initial evaluation.
  2. Orthopedic Specialist for musculoskeletal issues.
  3. Gastroenterologist for possible gastrointestinal causes.
  4. Pulmonologist for lung-related issues.

If the pain is severe, sudden, or accompanied by breathing difficulties, seek emergency care.

If they are, is there something I can do to help with the gas? And what if I decide to switch to liquid egg whites insteadwould that make any difference?
