I'm noticing some blood coming from a spot just above my butt crack, right by the end of my tailbone. I think there's a small hole there. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it? I'm feeling a bit worried.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A small hole or opening above the butt crack, near the tailbone, with bleeding, may indicate a pilonidal sinus, anal fissure, or a perianal abscess; apply gentle pressure with a clean cloth to stop the bleeding, maintain good hygiene, and seek immediate medical attention

Some low-grade fistulas heal with Ksharasutra (Ayurvedic) or antibiotics—but surgery is usually curative and best long-term.
