A member asked:
Purple around anus. looked like deflated sacs. larger red/purple in middle sac right inside anus. and a skin tag. hemorrhoid or polyp?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely: Can be a thrombosed hemorrhoid or a sentinel pile--especially if accompanied by a history of constipation, excessive pressure to move your bowels. A physical examination would be in order, however, to determine exact diagnosis.
