Hello, Kay! I believe you may have a hemorrhoid as well. All a hemorrhoid is a vein that becomes swollen inside or outside the anal area. You can have both at the same time even. When a person strains hard to defecate or anything that puts much pressure on the veins of the rectal region can cause hemorrhoids. The more a person does this, the higher liklihood he/she will get hemorrhoids. Pregnancy oftens brings them on since there is much pressure from carrying a baby.
If it is bothering you, you can buy over-the-counter medication, like Preparation-H, to help shrink it. If you still have problems with it after treating it yourself, it may behoove you to go to a doctor and have him/her exam you. Good luck!
