Hey..

I believe you both will feel better about what appears to be a hemorroid (sp?) if he is examined by a doctor.  The ER is not the best first stop.

His GP can evaluate, and if necessary, refer to specialist.  In best case, he or she may have either a script or suggestions for OTC preparation to ease the swelling and bleeding.

It could also be a skin tag.

Get it checked out by your family GP or any walk-in clinic if it is a concern.
