Bump on rectum
Posted: 05-01-08 10:21am

Two days ago I started to feel sick and had to use the toilet. I thought I had diarrhea from a soft serve ice cream cone I had earlier in the day. I usually can't take milk in liquid form if I haven't been drinking it in a while, so I thought it was normal. My stomach was hurting and I felt like I had a slight fever. I had the chills. I thought I had a cold so I took tylenol cold and went to bed. The fever susided within 2 hours but I got up at least 3 times in the middle of the night to poo. My stools were coming out in liquid form. The next day, I wasn't feeling much better. My stomach was still bothering me and I still had the chills. I went about my day but I had to use the bathroom everytime my stomach started to bubble. While I was using the toilet, I realized that my rectum was really starting to hurt when I would put a little pressure on it. After a while, it became really painful to go but I had to go pretty often. MY stools were still coming out in liquid form. Towards the end of the second day, I was in the shower and I touched the area around my rectum and felt a pea size bump. It hurt to touch it. I'm now on the third day and I've been feeling very nauseous and still having trouble passing stools. The bump is still there. It's about the size of the tip of my pinky and it hurts to sit.

What is it and what can I do about it?
