I'm dealing with a healing anal fissure and I'm thinking about having sex with my girlfriend. Could this make my fissure worse or cause any problems?

HPV (Human Papillomavirus) is a common sexually transmitted infection.
Treatment for genital warts caused by HPV:
- Topical treatments: Imiquimod cream, Podofilox solution, or Sinecatechins ointment
- Cryotherapy: Freezing the warts with liquid nitrogen
- Surgical removal: Excision or laser treatment
- Antiviral medications: Interferon or Cidofovir (in severe cases)
Consult a dermatologist or a urologistgynecologist for proper evaluation and treatment.
Note: HPV itself cannot be "cured," but the symptoms (genital warts) can be treated.

View allI'm having a lot of pain right at the edge of my anus and lower back, and it's making it really hard to sit or go to the bathroom. I've also noticed some swelling in that area, and it hurts more if I try to stretch the muscle. Can you help me figure out what might be going on and suggest who I should see about this?
Could be an anal fissure or hemorrhoids. For confirmation you will have to consult a specialist. To help with the pain and discomfort, you can try using over-the-counter ointments like Anusol or Preparation H to help reduce swelling and promote healing. Additionally, taking a stool softener like Colace can help make bowel movements less painful. Make sure to drink plenty of water and eat a high-fiber diet to avoid constipation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with complete rectal prolapse for over 10 years since I was young and now I'm 19. I'm scheduled for TRRPCS surgery but I'm not sure if it's the best option for me especially since I want to join the defense forces. Are there better surgical alternatives I should consider that would fit my active career goals?
TRRPCS is a good option for young patients with prolapse; however, rectopexy or laparoscopic procedures may offer better durability for physically demanding careers.
