Anal Pain & Lumps Improving with Cream Is the Problem Fully Resolved?
1 month ago
I had pain, swelling, and lumps in the anal area, for which I used a cream sent by relatives instead of consulting a doctor. I was advised to apply a gel several times a day and drink buttermilk daily. I did not take any oral medicines. I want to know whether this improvement is normal, how fast results usually appear, and whether the lumps reducing along with pain means the problem is resolved.

Yes, it is good that your pain, bleeding, and lumps have reduced, and getting relief within 2–4 days can happen with supportive treatments like certain homeopathic or local applications, especially if the condition was mild.
Reduction in lumps along with pain indicates that the inflammation has come down, which is why you are feeling better. However, since no medical examination was done and no oral medicines were taken, this relief may be temporary.
If symptoms return or persist, it is advisable to get a proper medical consultation to confirm the diagnosis and avoid recurrence.
