I have had small pimple-like bumps near the external anus for three days with earlier itchiness and a mild burning sensation, but no pain or bleeding. Are these piles or something else? What medication should I use?
Small pimple like bumps near the anus with itchiness and mild burning are more commonly due to local skin irritation, allergic reaction, minor infection, or blocked glands rather than piles because piles usually present as swollen veins with pain, bleeding, or pressure, so it is best to consult your doctor for proper examination and confirmation. They can then advise the appropriate treatment based on the exact cause, rather than starting any medication on your own.
