I am Dr Shamoon, Consultant Physician. A lump that appears while passing stool is commonly a haemorrhoid, but a prolapse or another anal lesion can look similaran image alone cannot confirm it. Pain, bleeding, fever or a lump that stays out needs prompt examination.
Next Steps
Avoid straining, drink enough water and add fibre gradually; warm sitz baths may ease discomfort. Do not apply steroid or numbing creams without an examination. Arrange an in-person check if it persists or bleedsâbook a Practo consult or visit Synergy Multispeciality Hospital, Miraj.

Pain and a lump while passing stool usually point to piles or a small tear called a fissure, and both are common and treatable. In your photo, you can see a small pinkish swelling at the edge of the anal opening. You'll need a quick examination to know which one it is.
Next Steps
Please see a general surgeon or proctologist. Meanwhile, sit in a tub of warm water for a few minutes after passing stool, drink plenty of water, and add fibre through fruit, vegetables and whole grains. Avoid straining or sitting long on the toilet. See someone urgently if you get fever, heavy bleeding, or the pain becomes severe and throbbing.
