Question : I was having bad diarrhea tonight for a couple of hours and I noticed afterwards that there is now a bump around my butt hole. It definitely was not there before the diarrhea occurred. What is it and what can or should I do?

Most likely hemorrhoids.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely hemorrhoids. This occurs due to dilation of veins on that area. This could have occurred due strain on that area.
Applying hemorrhoid creams containg corticosteroids like hydrocortisone and anesthetic like cinchocaine will be helpful. This is available in brands like proctosedyl. You can also do sits bath.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if any thing not clear.
Thanks.
