A few days later I felt a very small hard lump in the area of where I thought the 'hemorrhoid' was. It is hard and can move around under my fingers. I haven't had any bleeding. I've seen two Dr's who have said it's a hemorrhoid but it doesn't feel like one to me. If I had anal cancer, do you think it would have shown on the CT Pneumocolon in June? A CT pneumacolon is a virtual colonscopy. Thanks in advance.
