Q: Dark lump near anus

Hi, I'm 28 years old and right now I'm not in my home country which makes the things a bit complicated to solve.
2 days ago I started to have some pain while walking and also when I'm sitting down. Today I was really tired of this pain and I tried to search on the internet for possible causes but I never found any mention to a dark lump, only skin coloured lump that I suppose is perianal abscesses.
I've tried the warm water help with the pain and it worked for a while, a also start eating only fibres based food and a lot of water but I'm afraid this will not pass and actually I'm a bit afraid because dark lump does not sound good

Thanks a lot for your help

hello you are doing everything right so no need to worry. i suffer henarroids too but use preparation h to help shrink the henarriod..fibre diet is good and also vegetables and oats..also drink 6 glasses of water a day to help keep motions soft..
constipation is the usual culprit for these little sore blighters..they can vary in colour and size and sometimes bleed but only on tissue when you wipe rarely in the pan unless it bursts during bowel motion and that gives relief..
hope this helps you.
