Partly duplicates your previous question. Hemorrhoids seem like the most likely explanation, but only an in-person doctor visit will give a clear answer.

All these can be symptoms of hemorrhoids. And the pink pebbles and purple balls could be rectal bleeding, which requires evaluation by general surgeon, colorectal surgeon, or a primary care doctor in person. This is to make sure it’s nothing serious like colorectal cancer
