Could a small, slightly painful, skin-colored lump near my anus be piles, is there any chance it is related to my hair loss medications (Finax and minoxidil) or recent pills from my dermatologist, and will it heal on its own or do I need to seek medical treatment?

This lump could indeed be a small hemorrhoid (pile). It is highly unlikely to be directly caused by your hair loss medications, finasteride (Finax) or minoxidil. However, if other pills from your dermatologist caused constipation, the resulting strain might contribute to it. Many mild hemorrhoids heal on their own with a fiber-rich diet, plenty of fluids, and warm baths. Still, it is always safest to have a doctor examine it to confirm exactly what it is and ensure you get the right care.
