I've got this lump near my butt crack that's been giving me some trouble. Sometimes it itches, and other times it really hurts. There's even this green pus-like stuff coming out of it, which is pretty gross and uncomfortable. Can you tell me what kind of doctor I should see about this?

View allI have a perineal abscess and the pain is really bad near it, is there any way to treat it without surgery
A perineal abscess often requires drainage to relieve pain and prevent worsening infection. In some early or mild cases, antibiotics and warm sitz baths may help temporarily, but surgery (incision and drainage) is usually the definitive treatment. Please consult a doctor promptly to avoid complications.

I've been diagnosed with a hernia but I'm really hesitant about getting surgery are there any other effective treatments or lifestyle changes that could help manage it? I'm worried about the risks and recovery time
While hernia surgery is generally recommended, some individuals may be able to manage hernias through lifestyle changes and other conservative treatments, especially if the hernia is small and not causing significant symptoms. These options include dietary adjustments, weight management, exercise, and, in some cases, using a hernia support belt. However, it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the best course of action for your specific situation, as hernias can sometimes worsen over time and may eventually require surgery
