Hammaroid or skin tag?
In the last 5 months, i had hypothyroid leading to constipation, due to which I had grade 1 and 2 Hammaroids and a Anal Fissure. Now, my hypothyroid and constipation are under control. I do not have any Hammaroids, and the fissure is also healing.
But there is 1 problem i am not sure about. I use a western toilet. When i sit on the toilet and pass stool (without any pressure), a small lump develops at the anus. The lump is not painful or does not bleed. After 20-30 mins of passing stool, the lump disappears, and when i touch and feel my anus, it feels like there is no problem at all. Is this lump a Hammaroid or a skin tag? Why is this happening?

Please consult with a General Surgeon in your area. A physical examination is worth more than a thousand guessworks and conjectures.
