Piles?

5 replies

Hoppy4464 · 26/03/2025 22:36

About 6 weeks ago noticed I had a small squishy lump on outside of anus. I'm guessing it's an external pile although I've never had piles before. Did use anusol cream for a week and it's not really causing me any bother but how long will it take to go? (Tried pushing it back in but nothing happened). Is there a point where I should get it checked out if its not disappearing.

If you’ve had it for 6 weeks, you need to see a doctor about it. It may well be just piles but it really is worth getting it checked.

What @worrisomeassetsaid.

Piles do tend to get painful and bleed after a while, so if this isn’t the case, it could be a cyst. Anything down there I tend to put Sudocream on, but after 6 weeks maybe you should get it seen.
