Hi there, I have a very personal, embarrassing question. I m 22 years old, and I have never really told anyone about this, but it s truly been hurting now. On my rectum, there is a bulge that extrudes out and has been quite bothersome for my whole life. Only recently for no reason, has it begun to really hurt. I m embarrassed to go to a real doctor, but do you have any idea what it may be?
