Hi
So my daughter is 4 months old and the last few weeks of pregnancy I had a sore bum of what I thought was hemeriodss.
Things seemed to settle down but the a few weeks ago I had another one pop out it was sore didn't bleed and was outside my bumhole...
I managed to push it back in and got some cream from the GP...
Everything seemed go shrink down and the soreness went however when I feel just inside my anus I can feel 2 little lumps as if they've shrunk but the lump is still there...
Is this normal....I'm freaking out it's AC......
As I have Hpv on my cervix anyone else taken a while to get rid of the lumps when they've shrunk

Did the GP examine you?
Far more likely to be haemorrhoids than someone sinister, especially given the history and the cream shrinking them.

I'd buy a squatty potty or a little step to use when on the toilet. It makes opening the bowels much easier and puts less strain on the area. If you still have concerns, speak to your GP.

Totally normal to have haemorrhoids that are like this. I got them in my first pregnancy and have found they can occasionally ‘pop out’ ever since: in my two subsequent pregnancies but also any time I’ve had to strain.

After my second pregnancy they basically went away but I got left with a number of skin tags (can’t think of a better way to describe it) which didn’t hurt but were there all the time. I eventually had day surgery to have them removed but they came back anyway so now I’ve just kind of accepted them as part of me 😂

Yes totally normal for internal haemorrhoids. I have a few plus a large skin tag from pregnancy, 3 vaginal births and a very large babies. Keep using the haemorroid cream internally and you will probably shrink them. Straining on the loo is often the culprit too!

As you are so worried, why not see a doctor and they can examine you and put your mind at rest?

It's just haemorrhoids. I got them with my first pregnancy 30 years ago, and they've never gone away. They flare up and down (and in and out). Theyre just inside and they're small hard lumps.
Go and see your GP again, but from what you describe it sounds like haemorrhoids.
