Hello doctor! I am wondering if the appearance of flesh under the anus is a sign of hemorrhoids or not? Because I don't feel pain or discomfort, even when going to the toilet. I am very worried about the above situation, but I am afraid to go to the doctor, so I hope the doctor can advise and answer for me. Thank you sincerely!
