Brief Answer:
Possible hemorrhoids

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

As per your symptoms the possibility of hemorrhoids or piles is high in your case

This require a per rectal examination by a General Surgeon to confirm the diagnosis.

Meanwhile I prescribe oral laxatives like isphagula husk to my patients with such symptoms.

Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these medications to improve your symptoms.

Post your further queries if any
Thank you
