A member asked:

I have a bump under the skin near my anus opening since about 1 week. it's not red, but it's tender. the tenderness has diminished 2 days ago, but the bump is still here. what can it be & could it be cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It is likely to be an external hemorrhoid and is expected to heal by scarring, Cancer is unlikely. If it does not get better in a couple of weeks, it would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
