I've noticed this small bump under the skin near my anus recently. It's about the size of a pea and doesn't really seem discolored. I started feeling it a couple of days ago because it gets uncomfortable when I tighten around there. It doesn't hurt, just kind of feels off. I even took a picture just in case, but I'm not sure what it is. Also, no bloody stool or anything like that. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

A small, pea-sized bump near the anus can be a perianal hematoma, an anal skin tag, or a small external hemorrhoid, but it's essential to consult a surgeon

I've had an outgrowth near my anus for the past 3 years that causes itching. I also have constant gas and acidity issues my stomach always feels full of gas. The gas puts pressure on my heart, and I have to strain during bowel movements. I had a VSD heart surgery back in 1999. Is surgery an option for the anal outgrowth since I'm not on any medications right now?
surgery opinion is advised to the patient.

I've had an external hemorrhoid for about a month now no pain or bleeding, but it's not getting better either. I'm really hoping to avoid surgery. Any advice on how to help it heal naturally?
To naturally manage an external hemorrhoid that isn't causing pain or bleeding, focus on improving bowel habits. Increase fiber intake, stay hydrated, and avoid straining during bowel movements. Topical treatments like over-the-counter creams, ointments, or suppositories can also help relieve discomfort, swelling, and itching. Warm baths or sitz baths can also provide relief.
