Hi,

I have just noticed 2 balls of external skin below the anus, they do not hurt or itch etc. they seem to be part of the skin and feel like skin as well as being the same colour. any ideas?? and if so, treatable without going to a doctor?

Thanks for your help

Hi there, thanks for your response, no fever, redness, inflammation, nothing, its just there out of the blue.. its sort of hard, hasnt changed in size, and just seems like skin, the area did seem to get a little itchy though throughout the day. i thought it might be a hemmaroid? thanks again
