I'm really worried because my husband and I tried anal sex recently, and it was super painful the first time, so I had to stop. Now, the next day, I've noticed a fleshy lump around the wrinkles of my anus, and it's really painful. It's messing with my normal activities. What should I do about it?

Question

Hey, I've noticed this skin hanging from my anus and it's a bit painful. I'm really worried about what it might be and how I can treat it. Could you give me some advice on what this could be and how to handle it?

Question

I'm having a tough time dealing with pain after using the washroom for about a month now. I saw my GP, and he diagnosed me with a fissure and gave me some meds like CiploxTzH and Rinifol, plus Smuth Laxative and Anovate cream. A week later, the pain was a bit better, but I got worried and went to see a surgeon. He said I've got a fissure and two Grade III piles, with a lump outside the anus, and suggested surgery. Surgery freaks me out, so I got a second opinion from another surgeon. He also mentioned surgery but said it's not too urgent unless things get worse. He gave me 2Dilgel for the fissure. But when I use it, there's this terrible burning sensation around the lump. He said it should get better in 2-3 days. Is 2Dilgel really good for both fissures and piles? Also, is it okay to use coconut oil internally for fissures? What should be my next steps?

Question

I'm dealing with a fistula issue that's been bothering me for the past year, and it's been draining pus continuously. I really need to find a good doctor who specializes in fistulas. Can you help me figure out what kind of treatment options might be available or suggest any tips for finding the right specialist? I'm pretty worried about this situation and would appreciate any advice you have.
