Avatar f tn I did some research on it and I think it may be a pilonidal abscess. It’s not located on my upper butt so I’m not sure it is. Can it be located father down like mine is or is it most often higher up?
Avatar n tn Antibiotics treat the infection that has caused the abscess. The specific antibiotic depends on what infectious organism has caused the abscess. Whether the abscess is drained or not, antibiotics are always used to treat the underlying infection. Needle aspiration of the abscess to remove the infectious fluid. This can be done on superficial abscesses that can be reached by a needle and syringe. For those abscesses inaccessible by a needle, surgical drainage is done.
Avatar m tn 3 days ago I competed in a bicycle race (not sure if this is connected to my situation) and a few hours after the event I noticed a small lump on my buttocks quite close to my anus. It was soar to the touch but otherwise no bother. The next morning when I woke up it doubled in sized. By the afternoon it grew to about 2 inches in length and 1 inch wide. It is firm to the touch and seems to be located a little bit under my skin but not so deep that I can not feel it well.
Avatar f tn Hello, You are correct because it can be a cyst or abscess in the perineal area. It does not look like Bartholin’s abscess. There are glands in the vaginal lips called Bartholin’s glands. These can become painful and swollen, and an abscess can form but they present on the vagina and not the groin. She needs incision and drainage and a course of oral antibiotics as soon as possible.
Avatar n tn Yesterday my husband, aged 54yrs had drainage of an abscess? diagnosed following ct scan for a lump between anus and scotum which tripled in size over the previous week. Has been in pain since the May 08 followup colonoscopy which led to bleeding for 2 days, and then a month of ++ bleeding in September. Severe pain - on Tramal twice per day plus paracetamol 4 x day.
Avatar m tn So about 3 weeks ago I had my perianal abscess drained and the healing process went quite well until about 1 week after the drainage small spots started to appear around my anus and near where the abscess was. My doctor prescribed me with a 1 week course of antibiotics which seemed to clear them up. However, more spots have started to appear but more itchy and painful and also when they burst the pain seems to ease. So are these spots anything to worry about?

Avatar n tn the area between my anus and vagina is swollen.i wanted to kno first of all what causes this and second what can i do to make the swelling go away?
Avatar n tn So, i've noticed on and off that the inside of my anus has been hurting. i think it might be from having sex. Theres no bleeding, no apparent or obvious lumps or bumps, it doesn't hurt when i go to the bathroom, but it just hurts when i sit for long periods of time. if i had to explain what it felt like, i'd have to say like sitting on a bruise. I'm just kind of scared to talk about this to anyone in my family, so i wonder if this is something i should be concerned about.

Avatar f tn Please help anyone? 7 wks ago i got an abscess incision and drainage(jus next 2 anus) after being admitted to hospital it literally accured over a 3 day period with antibiotics having no effect, the insision was so small it made the packing of cavity the most painfull ordeal i have ever experienced..
Avatar m tn The small bump is on the hard surface from my anus leading to my genital area but it very close to the anus opening. While I have a growth coming out of my anus. It itches at times and when I use the bathroom I see blood on the paper. It's even painful at times to wash because the cut is open. I''m worried that it may be warts, hemorrhoids or something even more severe.
Avatar f tn Had it lanced and drained/packed and put on antibiotics. Then just recently I have had a abscess develop on my right labia minora, which poped on its own, but not even 5 days later it was back and had to go to theatre for drainage. I have now been informed that during the surgery the doctor picked up on a systolic grade 3 heart murmur. Please has anyone else experienced this it know of anyone who has. I am at the end of my tether, and am so depressed. If anyone can help me please.
Avatar m tn On a separate note, I suffered from anal fissures for 3 years, horrendously painful, like someone shoving a knife up your bum ever time you go for a poo - **** the GTN, go for the diltiazem hydrochloride 2%. I mean, it didn't work for me overall and rid me of the fissures but my bum was very tight and needed surgery. Just don't suffer with it! And also if it happened as a result of anal sex don't beat yourself up about it, no matter what your past you have a spotless future.
Avatar n tn on a Wed. i had my first colonoscopy. they diagnosed diverticulitis (previous to test i had some symptoms, but test was a regularly scheduled cancer screening). no treatment was proscibed. within three days i was in the hospital for a week, CT scan showed a colon abscess, i dodged emergency surgery and responded to IV antibiotics. now i'm two months out of the hospital and a GI and surgical followup recommends bowel resection. i've read that the bowel does not repair itself.

1521377 tn?1291134768 for the past 4 months I have had a very uncomforatable anus problem, when I am sitting, it feels like I am sitting right on top of my anus, and, it hurts, I feel like deep tissue on my backside has nerve ending problems. I have been to a GP , he looked and told me I might have prostate infection and put me on antibiotic for two weeks. no help. I went to a dermatologist, he did a culture and said I had a yeast problem, two more weeks of meds, to no avail.
Avatar n tn A boil, also referred to as a skin abscess, is a localized infection deep in the skin. A boil generally starts as a reddened, tender area. Over time, the area becomes firm and hard. Eventually, the center of the abscess softens and becomes filled with pus. Finally, the pus "forms a head," which can be surgically opened or spontaneously drain out through the surface of the skin. Apply warm compresses on the boil and keep the area clean.
Avatar n tn I have a few spots by the anus the larger one i squeezed and this thick puss came out which smelt horrible. what could this be.
Avatar m tn I have been experiencing sharp random pains in my anus daily that barely last more than a second. I cant find any diagnoses that fit my description please help.
Avatar n tn In mid-2007, I began noticing warts around my anus. Over several months between late 2007 and about July 2008, I visited a dermatologist and had all warts burnt off. In July 2008, my final visit to the dermatologist, I had a small, fluorescent pink growth examined, removed and biopsied. The pathology lab informed me there was nothing abnormal about the skin. Separately, I developed an anal abscess from a rough episode of anal sex, for which I was treated with antibiotics.
Avatar m tn i have a very tiny hard lump 1/2 inch inside my anus above the skin wall. it doesnot pain or bleed. can it be a cancer?
