Ok, apologies for making my first post on such a delightful topic but I've been meaning to join this forum for ages and figured it would be ok to mention it here.
I've been a little constipated recently and have been able to feel a fleshy sort of lump at the opening of my anus when I strain. It comes and goes; sometimes it's only tiny, others it feels much bigger. I'm on pills for nausea, a side effect of which is constipation but, of course, this isn't registering with me and I've decided I have bowel cancer. I've spoken to my mum about it (she's suffered with piles a lot) and she's told me it sounds similar to her problems but I'm so busy worrying that I hardly listen. I'm 20 and, as Google informs me, bowel cancer is most common in the over-65s but still! And, I guess, it wouldn't come and go. Just wondered if anyone had suffered from something similar and could calm me down a bit. Thanks, and sorry again for er... well, the toilet talk!
