Itchy and sore anus, white lump between the cheeks Posted: 09-18-07 10:15am
I noticed today that my anus is kind of
itchy and sore(ish) so I checked in the
mirror and notice there is a white
spot/lump between the cheeks near the
anus, does this sound like hemorrhoids, or
something similar? If not anyone have any
idea what it could be? Don't really want
to go to the doctors for it, but will if I
have too.
I look forward to reading your replies.

Making a Hemy Doctor Visit Really Soon! Posted: 09-23-07 16:00pm
Your problem sounds exactly like mine. I
had one painful night last night with
thoughts of going to the emergency room
due to the same symptoms you are
experiencing.
I'm pretty sure it's a hemorrhoid ... just
from researching and speaking with others.
I too am really NOT looking forward to
visiting my doctor for this prob, but I
have no choice. Using the restroom is
excruciatingly painful causing bleeding.
You may want to try many home treatments.
Over the counter you can buy
suppositories, creams & gels
(pharmacist suggested gels over creams),
and medicated wipes. Reading online
instructs you to sit in a warm bath. This
didn't work for me, it caused further
swelling. Icepacks on the hemy seemed to
reduce swelling. Oh yea, buy yourself
some motrin!! Good luck.
