After scope gastro said ibs&hypertrophied anal papillae.clear definition plz of what 2nd thing is.&is it visible or related to blood in bm's or piles?

Gland swelling: My understanding is that your anal glands which provide lubrication are swollen. This can be related to digestive issues, inflammation, what you described and possibly infection. See your doctor who performed the scope for more answers. Good luck
