  • Hello,

    If you are worried, then ask your GP to examine you and assess you. They can advise you further.

    It is probably an inflamed pile, as anal cancer is not common, and even less common in younger people. Try and keep your stools (poo) soft, and consult a pharmacist about applying cream to treat piles in the meantime. 

    Best wishes,
