 Hello,
Anal cancer is not a common condition. So that's a point that is in favor of hemorrhoids, which is considered common.
Both conditions can present with an anal mass, pain and hemorrhage. However, differentiating between the two is not a problem, as the diagnosis of hemorrhoids is often readily established by clinical examination.
You must have it examined as soon as possible.
Best regards.
