Swollen Vein Near Anus.
I have noticed a swelling near my anus, which appears to be a vein, ending in a small bump. The bump is usually painless, but occasionally causes mild discomfort, especially after sitting for long periods or during bowel movements. There is no discharge, bleeding, or pus. The swelling has been present for 3 month, and its size is approximately a pea.
