Hi, my girl friend has been sad for a while now. While she was having her evening bath she felt a pea sized lump at the entrance to her anus. She was very suprised and called me to have a look. According to her the part closest to the anus actually continues into the anus itself. At the onset it wasnt painfull and it disappeared after two days only to reappear with pain the third day. Now it hurts when she sneezes, when she laughs and even when she coughs she has to hold her butt to try to ease the pain. It is also painfull when she sits. I need urgent help as our wedding is comming up on the 26th of March, 2011.can an medication ease the pain or dr up the lump? Can she drain the lump by making it tender with hot water and petroleum jelly and subsequently puncturing it?
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. She has mostly hemorrhoid (piles).  It leads to pain and lump She should ta take high fiber diet with plenty of water.  Avoid constipation. Hot water bath and local anesthetic can be helpful. Permanent treatment of choice is surgical excision. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
