I don't really feel comfortable talking about this but here goes...Recently I discovered a bump on my anal duct/gland ( pink area) Its pretty big, about the size of a pea. I think its a cyst, it usually gets inflammed and hurts pretty bad. Is there anything I can do to treat it, besides going to the doctor? Are there any medications I can find in my local drug store? Can I pop it myself? Someone please give me some advice! (More info on the cyst...Its round...kind of a purple looking color) Im not 100% sure its a cyst...but it happened in a matter of weeks, and it looks similar to other photos ive seen on the web. Thanks for any advice!!!
It is a thrombosed hemorrhoid. Don't pop it yourself or it might get infected. Try stool softeners, high fiber diet, preparation H otc, soaking in warm tub with cheeks spread. If it eventually does need to be drained have a doctor do it.
