Hi everyone,
I am very concerned about a painful lump which has appeared around my anus. This happened about three weeks ago after a morning of diarrhea which meant me sitting on the toilet for a long period of time.
When I stood up to clean up, I was cleaning and I suddenly felt a a pain. I thought nothing of it but the pain intensified so I took a look n the mirror and this is what I saw (apologies for the graphic photos guys :-/ )
It also has a discharge which is causing irritation around my anus in this hot weather. Never experienced anything like this before :-/
Can anyone tell me what this is and how long before the painful lump will disappear?
I have an appointment booked for the doctors but not for until next week and I'm worried.
Thanks so much for any help here
