A member asked:
I have these purple/blue colored soft lumps/areas around my anus. they hurt a little bit and show more with strain. hemorrhoids or something else?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
External hemorrhoids: It sounds very much like external hemorrhoids. External hemorrhoids have pain fibers. They do get worse with straining or if you're constipated. Things that can help include not straining when you have a bowel movement, staying very well hydrated with water, and not sitting on the toilet to read a magazine or a book or playing with your phone when you're having a bowel movement.
