A member asked:

Male 23 - have a painless fleshy smooth lump inside anus about 2 -3 cms from sphincter. doesn't hurt, occasionally on passing poop burns for 10 mins. found during vaseline application. present since 1 year. could it be malignant ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chances are that this rectal "lump" is an internal hemorrhoid, but to be certain, get a referral to a colorectal surgeon. The chances of malignancy are minimal, but to relieve the anxiety produced, follow through with the referral request.
