Soft bump around rectal area (Pic Included)

Posted , 4 users are following.

I've had this bump on my rectal area for some time, and I can't tell if it's a haemorrhoid or a skin tag or something else. it doesn't itch, bleed, or hurt in any way. Should I try to shrink it with OTC creams? Should I go to a doctor and have them look at it? I'm at a loss at what it is and if I can just leave it alone or what.

    It looks like it could be an haemorrhoid but for peace of mind get it checked out at your doctors. Take care.
