A small lump/pimple like thing in anus

urmm hi... i have this pimple like thing on just the "mouth" of the anus... the place cloest to the outside.. but it is on the anus...

it has been a few days... the first few days wat i feel is that it is JUST LIKE A pimple...

it is very painful to touch these all, just like an immature pimple, it also feels like a pimple.. later it become less pain, just like a painful... tho less painful doesnt mean not painful anymore...

somehow, this lump or bump thing gets less and less painful, but nv decrease in size... however, now, there is still a very little pain when u touch it...

then later i go search about anus cancer and hemorrhoids... both the symptoms for these 2 thing is that there is a lump or bump on the more outer area of the anus, just like mine... however, i did NOT bleed.....

absolutely no blood, i use tissue no blood, hand touch touch fidget with it also no blood... shit also no blood...

this i dunno what i should do now... it may be an anus cancer, but i know the chances are low... but still possible... but i am also scared, and lazy... i dun wanna see a doctor so soon yet, since it is just the beginning...

so the question is, is it alright if i dun see a doctor yet? will a 1 month delay affect anything if it is a cancer?

also i suspect this may be some inflammatory thing... i always wash the anus with my finger.. and sometimes when my fingernail too long and scratch it, the anus becomes injured... and i go cut nail.. then no more bleeding, anus heal.. this repeats for like 3 times... then around 2 - 3 days later after the last round of injuring the anus with fingernail, ( by then the anus is healed already), i got this lump/bump/pimple thing growing on the mouth of the anus...

ah so what should i do?

I think that it is a haemorrhoid, just that it has not reached the stage where it bleeds easily.

Just go see a GP who can refer you to a specialist if necessary.

how long later does the bleeding occur?
btw thanks for telling

I don't know how long, but please don't wait until that happens before you seek proper medical help.

Go see a doctor ASAP, and for now, eat more fiber and drink more water.

And try using squatting toilets - I remember reading a study where a switch to squatting toilets actually helped to alleviate cases of haemorrhoids. At the very least, it won't hurt to use squatting toilets.
