Hello everyone.
About 2-3 days ago I started experienced discomfort in my bum that I ignored and thought I used bad toilet paper or something (I use a bidet). Yesterday I decided to take a photo and was unpleasantly surprised. I’m not sedentary, I have recently started eating loads more fruit, and I don’t spend more than 5 minutes on the loo. I’m really panicking here because chat GPT is advising me that it’ll essentially go away on its own, however lurking around the server I see surgery talked about so often I don’t know what to believe.
I sincerely apologize for sharing such a graphic photo but I’ve nowhere else to turn to. Thank you in advance for any advice.
Edit: that photo was from this morning, it seems to have grown/ swollen as of this evening
Edit 2: had a bowel movement and it shrunk to even less than it was this morning
