I've noticed this small hard lump near my anus. It doesn't really hurt unless I press on it, then it hurts a bit. Should I be concerned about this? What could it be?

View all**Rephrased user query:** I've had an anal fissure for two weeks and my doctor prescribed antibiotics, fidonal cream, and sitz baths with betadine. But I'm confused about two things why did he say to avoid non-veg food for a month? How does that affect the fissure? Also, can I just use my finger to apply the cream instead of the applicator? And if I end up needing surgery, how long until I can get back to my normal routine?
Non Veg causes constipation in few induviduals so that might aggravate your fissure symptoms...You can use ur finger too to apply as its designed like that whereas while using your fingers u have ur nails so u feel discomfort...After fissure surgery u can return back to normal in two days

I noticed a small muscle-like bulge near my anal area but there's no bleeding. Could this be piles or an external hemorrhoid? Do I need surgery for this or are there other treatment options?
A small, muscle-like bulge near the anus without bleeding could be an external hemorrhoid, also known as piles. Hemorrhoids are swollen veins that can develop inside or outside the anus and rectum. While often harmless and may resolve on their own, it's important to consult a doctor for diagnosis and to rule out other potential causes, especially if you experience pain or bleeding

I have an infection at the 12 o'clock position in my anus and my CRP level is over 16. My doctor recommended surgery but I'm wondering if homeopathy could be an alternative solution for this
BAMS opinion is advised to the pt.
