I do computer work, so most of my day is spent sitting. Over the past few months, I have been noticing a small bump just around my anus. There’s no pain or itching. And it’s not inside the anal area. It seems to get filled with blood when I put more pressure while using the toilet. It’s almost like swollen skin — very soft, without any hardness. What could this be? Are there any home remedies?

I suspect that it’s a hemorrhoid. A hemorrhoid is an enlarged blood vessel in or just outside the anus.
