Tag : A hemorrhoid involves the anus. Internal are painless while external may be painful. If you have a bump or mass about 1 inch away from the anus it could be a wart, it could be an abscess, it could be a tag. If it persists then see your doctor they will refer you to a specialist. Get your mother and father to talk to you if any family history exists of inflammatory bowel disease.

No.: Hemorrhoids are quite common. They come and go. They do not need physician evaluation unless they are painful, persistent, or bleeding heavily.
