I've been dealing with a small, pea-sized skin tag near my anus, and it's really painful when I pass stools. Sometimes, it even bleeds. I've tried eating bananas to soften the stools, but it doesn't seem to help. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should be doing to alleviate the pain and bleeding?

I'm considering laser surgery for piles but not sure if medicines alone can cure it How long does the laser treatment usually take and is it better than other options
Laser surgery for piles can be an effective option, offering a relatively quick procedure and recovery time. While medicines may help manage symptoms, they don't always cure the underlying condition, and laser surgery can provide a more definitive solution for larger or persistent piles. Laser treatment typically takes around 30-45 minutes, and recovery is usually faster than traditional surgery.

I've been noticing this itchy lump right at the opening of my anus for over a month now. It's not always itchy, but it's definitely there. I'm trying to figure out what it might be and what kind of doctor I should see about it. Any advice?
The itchy lump at the anus opening could be a hemorrhoid, anal tag, or a skin condition like eczema or psoriasis; schedule an appointment with a general surgeon
