    sorry in advance but i'm kind of concerned. i noticed a few days ago i had a small (less than a really smal pea size bump on the inside of my (for lack of a better word) ass. its about half a centermeter in and it feels like its underneath the skin. i can kind of grab it and move it around a little. i'm just worried and would like some advice. thanks

    My initial thought is that it might be haemorrhoids, but I am no medical expert! There's an article about them here http://emptyclosets.com/home/pages/resources/health/haemorrhoids-piles.php which may help you figure out whether that's it or not.

    A few questions which may help those who know more about this:

    1. Does it hurt all the time, when you go to the toilet, or not at all?
    2. Is there any blood when you go to the toilet?
    3. Are you constipated or do you need to strain quite a lot when you go?
    4. Has it got any bigger or smaller since you first noticed it?
    5. Have you had anything up there recently that could have caused injury?

    there is no pain or bleeding of any kind. its just vaguely unsettling. although to answer the last question i have recently started using err...marital aids:icon_redf (to put it in the most polite context) and i ussually experience a little pain upon first insertion.

    If the bump you're feeling is on the inside or on your anus and assuming that you have not been sexually active, then the most likely thing that the bump could be is a hemorrhoid. At the drug store, you can buy a hemorrhoidal creme that you can apply- in the US, Tucks or Preparation H are the most commonly seen brands.

    The pain you're feeling with your toys is not unusual. As long as you are using a reasonably sized toy with lots of lube, the risk of trauma is low. Most people don't complain about pain with hemorrhoids- the sensation is usually described as an itchy sensation or occasionally an irritated feeling.

    If the hemorrhoidal cremes don't resolve the issue, make an appointment with your physician and have it checked.
