Hi i hope you are well. I think you may have piles as I had it too postpartum😭 - contact your gp

It could be haemorrhoids or it could be an anal fissure which is like a little rip in the skin. Are you drinking enough water and eating enough fibre? Constipation is really common if you’re breastfeeding as your body uses more of the water to produce milk. See your doctor and they’ll be able to advise. It’s really common xx

Get Lactalose it helped me so much. Im three weeks pp after a C section and I take it every day to move things along.

Apart from drinking a lot and eating fruit and veg (fibres in general), you can get a piles cream to apply which really helps. I kept being in paid kinda hoping it would fix itself, then I finally got the cream and it's soooo much better.
