I just got a swollen lump between my anus and testicles, more to my left side. It is about 1.5 inches long, starting around the left side of my anus and ending where my left testicle is. There is no pain to the touch but a little pain when walking. I also have small internal hemorrhoids. What could this lump be, and what should I do about it?

Did not realize I couldn't take ibuprofen with Xarelto--took 300mg yesterday and 200mg today. Had knee surgery last Wednesday. Should I go to the ER? My leg was already swollen, but there's no seeping from the incision line. No other significant medical history.

I need shoulder and neck surgery but which should I do first? I have been dealing with this issue for over a year, experiencing sharp pains, numbness, and tingling. I have a C5 C6 herniation with severe stenosis, C7 nerve damage, labral tear with adhesive capsulitis, and am anemic. I've had cortisone shots and epidurals with no relief and am on pain meds. I'm currently doing therapy. Should I prioritize the neck or shoulder surgery first?
