I've been having this weird issue for the past two months where my stomach feels like it's beating, kind of like a heartbeat. It's freaking me out a little, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do about it?

Im an 18-year-old girl, and I recently noticed a small lump near my anus. I did some online searching and think it might be an external hemorrhoid. There was some bearable pain in that area before the lump showed up, so I didnt pay much attention to it. A week after, this small lump appeared after I went to the bathroom. It doesnt hurt or bleed, but Im a bit worried about what it could be. Could this really be a hemorrhoid, and what should I do next?

Based on your description, it is likely that you have an external hemorrhoid. To help alleviate the symptoms and reduce the swelling, you can try using over-the-counter medications such as Preparation H cream. Apply a small amount of the cream on the affected area up to four times a day. Additionally, you can take oral pain relievers such as ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. Make sure to drink plenty of water, eat a high-fiber diet, and avoid straining during bowel movements. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
