I'm having this really painful issue with a boil, or what I think is a skin tag, near the entrance of my buttocks. Every time I go to the bathroom, it hurts quite a bit, and it's been going on for the past three days. I'm already taking some meds that my family doctor prescribed, but it doesn't seem to be getting better quickly. It's making it hard for me to sit or walk comfortably. The medicines Ive been on are Bactifix Ointment, Acemiz which is paracetamol with serratiopeptidase and aceclofenac, Onoff OZ which includes ofloxacin and ornidazole, and Rantac 150. Im a bit concerned and unsure if theres something else I should do, or if these meds take longer to work. Could it be something more serious, and should I be doing anything differently?

I've been having this pain around my anus for the last couple of days, and when I went to see the doctor yesterday, she mentioned it was the beginning stage of piles. I'm a bit worried and not sure what to do next. Could you give me some advice on how to manage this or what steps I should take?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of piles (hemorrhoids). To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try using over-the-counter medications such as Preparation H cream. Apply a small amount of the cream to the affected area up to 4 times a day, especially after bowel movements. Additionally, you can take a stool softener like Colace to help make bowel movements more comfortable. Make sure to drink plenty of water and eat a high-fiber diet to prevent constipation, which can worsen hemorrhoid symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
