I'm dealing with a really painful grape-sized lump on my butt, along with a low-grade fever and headache. I've been using Preparation H, and it offers some relief, but it's temporary. I've never experienced hemorrhoids, so I'm unsure if that's what this is. The veins in my groin area feel sore, and even my taint is affected. I'm hesitant to eat or use the bathroom because every cough sends pain through my entire butt. This started after a cough that I thought was a painful fart, and the pain hasn't stopped, in fact, it's worsened over the past week. Every cough or sneeze now makes me fart. Is this normal and something that'll go away on its own, or should I see a doctor?

I noticed a small painful boil near my rectum opening and it's really uncomfortable. I've been constipated for a few days and think that might have caused it. I'm worried it could turn into a fistula but I really want to avoid surgery. Can this be treated with medicines or diet changes at this early stage? How can I manage it before it gets worse?
Physical examination needed for your case. Plz consult a surgeon

I'm really worried about the side effects of surgery for an anal fissure. Homeopathy says it can be cured with just medicines, but I still have this thick skin layer outside my anus from a chronic fissure that's causing trouble. They strongly advise against surgery, but I'm not sure what to do. Is surgery really risky? What are the possible side effects? I'm scared to go through with it but the discomfort is getting hard to handle.
side-effects include pain,bleeding,infection and headache.
