What you described seeing â a small brown snake-like creature in your bathroom â sounds more likely to be a worm or a small insect rather than an actual snake. The red swollen bump near your anal area without pain is most likely a mild insect bite or a small external haemorrhoid (pile), and not necessarily caused by whatever you saw. There is no need to panic, but the area should be examined properly.

Hi,😊
It can be a simple insect bite or local irritation. Keep the area clean and dry. You can apply a mild antiseptic cream.
Monitor for increasing pain, pus, fever or spreading redness. If it worsens, consult.
Feel free to consult for further guidance. 👍

Hello, Based on what you’ve described, it sounds like you may have had an insect bite or contact with an irritant while in your bathroom.
To help you better, please let me know:
Do you have any other symptoms, like itching, burning, or fever?
Has the swelling changed, spread, or gotten larger since you first noticed it?
For now, please follow these steps:
1. Keep it clean:Gently wash the area with mild soap and water.
2. Avoid irritation:Do not apply any harsh creams, home remedies, or ointments to the area.
3. Monitor: Keep an eye on it for any signs of spreading redness, warmth, or increased pain.
If the area starts to get very painful, shows signs of spreading infection, or if you feel unwell, please see a doctor for a physical examination in person."
