I'm dealing with this boil near my anus, and I think it might be from a hair breaking. It's really painful and makes it hard for me to walk, sit, or even use the bathroom comfortably. Can you suggest any remedies to get rid of it for good? I'm hoping for something that can help permanently.

My husband has been dealing with an anal issue for about 35 days now. He's really uncomfortable whether he's walking or sitting, and there are three lumps near his anus. We're living in different cities because of work so I'm worried. He says it's painful and that he's having regular bowel movements. He's also feeling a bit feverish and can't really concentrate at work. He's been doing warm compresses with Betadine twice a day, but since yesterday it's not helping either. What could be going on, and how can we help him feel better?

Immediate action required: 1. Wash the wound with soap and water. 2. Apply antibiotic ointment and cover with a bandage. 3. Seek medical attention within 24 hours for a tetanus shot and rabies post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). 4. Monitor your dog's behavior and health for the next 10 days. 5. Consult your veterinarian about vaccinating your dog as soon as possible. Precaution: Rabies risk is higher if your dog isn't vaccinated.

Fissure surgery (sphincterotomy) is generally effective at relieving pain and promoting healing, but there can be some post-operative discomfort and potential complications.
