What Does Bump On Outside Of Rectum Indicate?
I have a bump on the outside of my rectum. It's not a boil, but it's like a cyst that hurts to touch. It hurts when I have a bowel movement and when I sit down. I'm 27 yrs old. No medical hx other than an appendectomy, c-section, and 7 mos s/p gastric bypass. NKDA and not taking any meds other than vitamins

You might be having an anal fissure. Get your Per rectal examination done by a qualified surgeon. He will do proctoscopy if needed
