I found a lump.

For reference, I was 15 at the time (4weeks ago now 16). I was wiping after using the bathroom and felt a lump inside my anus, it's under the skin so I can't describe the look but it's just feels like a spot about the size/a bit smaller than a pea, maybe I just never noticed it but I keep thinking about it and It freaks me out. However I don't have any symptoms of anything I have read on like irritation, pain, swelling etc etc anyone else have this?

  • Hello J1werwq and welcome to our forum.

    I'm sorry to hear that you found a lump that is causing you to be worried.

    As we don't have a medical background, I'm afraid we won't be able to tell you if this lump is something to be concerned about. Only your doctor can say if this is something that requires further investigation so it might be a good idea to check this with your GP the next chance you get.

    Our friendly team of nurses are available from Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. on this phone number 0808 800 4040 if you think that speaking with someone medically trained might help.

    Best wishes,
