I have this tender “bubble” on my anus, is this something I should get checked out? I have some digestive issues so this kind of worries me. It is sore to the touch, I don’t know what it could be. I wanted to check with you guys before I booked a doctors appointment but I imagine that’s what I should do. To my knowledge it has only appeared in the last couple of day

Hello. Looks like a Hemorrhoid. A blood clot is in formation. It may burst and resolve by itself. But chances are it may return. If you are bleeding now, you should consult. If problem becomes painful or persists you should also consult. Prescription medications are available which can somewhat help. But you may need to be more careful about your diet. More water, more fiber, more exercise, less straining when passing stools. Don’t hesitate to see your Doctor for help. Regards
