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?

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.

I've noticed a lump or bump that's been growing near my anus for a few months now, and it's starting to ooze a yellowish fluid. It's worrying me a bit, and I'm curious about what this could be. Could it be something serious, or is it possible for it to just go away on its own? What should I do next?

That could be pilonidal sinus ,without any further delay visit General Surgeon for appropriate management
