What Causes A Movable Lump Inside The Anus?

I recently found a small round ball-like tissue just inside the anus. There is only one and I've never had it before. It doesn't hurt and I only noticed it because I was showering; otherwise, I wouldn't have known it was there. It moves around and is not stationary. What could this be?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Most probably it could be the hemorrhoid which might not bleed if this is not then it could be lymph node, or cold abscess over all it is all depends upon the clinical examination because with very brief history given here nothing much can be said.

But it would be just game of guessing, you have not provided detailed information about age and gender. Your detailed query will be appreciated.

Hope this information helps!
