A member asked:
I felt a lump within my rectum when showering.

May be harmless : I would monitor this for a few days. If it goes away, great! If not, or it changes, have a physician or other qualified person evaluate it. Things to be concerned about would be increased size, pain, tenderness or drainage from the area.
