Today while doing a pelvic floor check I noticed a small lump roughly the size of a lentil under the skin of the anal-rectal area. The position is at or just below the analrectal line and sitting on the interior sphincter muscle. It feels like a tight cluster of small vessels.
I've had these before on both sides approximately at 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock, but they went away. They glide around under the skin but always seem to work there way back to their original spot.
I'm just wondering if these may be small internal hemorrhoids, or are they some sort of trigger point, or just tightened up connective tissue.
I've found they usually appear at a spot the day after I've pressed a trigger point in that location.
There's no blood, or fissures. I just want to be careful not to press on them if that's not good, if they're not some sort of trigger point related thing.

Re: Help with identifying something
Sounds like internal hemorrhoids or small varicosities. Trigger points are intensely painful to push around.
Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.

Re: Help with identifying something
Ok, yeah, I thought so too. They go away, so I'm not too worried, but there's always pain associated with their appearance though they themselves don't seem to hurt. Thanks!!
