Abscess on perineum
Common Questions and Answers about Abscess on perineum
abscess
Hello,
The first possibility is of a boil or abscess in the area. The second possibility is of a perineal hernia. It is a hernia involving the perineum (pelvic floor), mostly found in men and often appears as a sudden swelling to one side (sometimes both sides) of the anus.
Second possibility which comes to my mind is of pilonidal cyst.
s and/or colitis since 2004, but have been very well for the last couple of years. I have recently developed a sore spot between my perineum and buttock. At first I thought it was just a septic spot, but it flares up every few days and bleeds loads - if I wasn't already wearing incontinence pads (for another condition) I would need to wear a sanitary towel. Could this be a fistula?
Ive been, for the last 2 weeks, having some pain/sensaions on the inside of my left thigh. (the abscess is on the left side of my perineum) and some odd pain/sensations in my penis. This has been pretty much constant for the last month+.
For a little bit after my risk, my wife had an itchy vulva, not constant but usually between her periods. No other symptoms. She stopped taking her birth control and it subsided.
Today she has a sore throat, says its pretty bad.
I notice a grape size protruding red lump on my husbands perineum. He is to embarrassed to go to the doctor and said he has been suffering for about three weeks. He states it is very painful when he sits, stand and walks. It looks like it has abscessed in the middle being white and crusty. If someone could please contact me I have pictures for examination. I am so worried about him but he will not go to the doctor. Only thing I could convince him was to put Neosporin on it.
About 2 months ago I noticed a 'squishy' lump just above my anus, and my perineum is also VERY swollen. Neither are painful, and I only noticed this issue when washing.
At first I thought it was piles, so I treated with anusol cream and suppositories - at separate times, and still the problem persisted. Next, I tried soaking in sea salt. The 'squishy' lump started to shrink in size, but the swelling between my vagina and anus got worse.
I also have an abscess on top of a varicous vein just inside my vagina so as you can imagine its quite sore to keep pushing. After all that time i managed to pass 2 tiny pieces. so i cleaned up and stood up to feel like my vagina was inside out... my perineum and labia was really swollen. After 15 mins i managed to have a number 2 and again after another half hour. The swelling has gone down alot but i still feel sore and dread going for a number 2 again....
Men as well as women can get these problems in their private area and on the perineum. If the root or plug of the abscess is not removed, it will continue to fester.
Squeezing is not something that is advised to be done (even though we all try to squeeze things out), because this can spread any infection.
Heating up a spoon and placing the rounded part on the "pimple" can sometimes help to draw it to the surface.
I got my results back on 4th Dec which were again negative however there was another red spot I noticed on the head of my penis completely different to what I had earlier. They again examined it through lens and confirmed it was Jock Itch. The doctor gave me Clotrimazole 1% to apply for a week and I noticed a lot of improvement. I can say the infection completely went away. Dr advised to keep applying at least for 2 more weeks after the infection goes away.
Judging by your description, it is most likely a fistula which is a tract that forms from the abscess of your infected tooth that escapes out to the gums. As long as the fistula in intact, your abscess can drain and slow down the spread of the abscess but if the fistula closes up, the abscess can spread rapidly through your face or neck area.
I would recommend seeing a dentist and getting treatment started.
After discovering your great website and extensive knowledge, I thought I'd ask you about a pain issue I suddenly encountered in the perineum area of my groin.
First, about me: I'm a 48 year old male, healthy and married.
Some background: Like most men, I recently visited my doctor about some possible ED issues (sometimes slow to get erection, sometimes not lasting). Issues that occurred about 50% of the time.

You are probably talking about Hidradenitis suppurativa, which presents as recurrent boil-like pus-like discharge abscesses resulting in difficult-to-heal open wounds and scarring. It commonly occurs on apocrine sweat gland-bearing skin such as in the groin, the underarms and under the breasts. It is also known as ‘acne inversa’.
“The extent and severity of the disorder varies widely between individuals. Initially a firm pea-sized nodule (0.5-1.
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.
ve picked up cycling about 40-50 miles per week along with strenuous training and noticed a solo abscess on my labia after a cycle session where I had tight fitting underwear. I popped the abscess and some white fluid came out, and it's still raised but steadily getting smaller with neosporin application. I have never had sex and the last time oral happened was late 2013.
I took a look and it turns out I have three cuts/gashes on my perineum. Everytime I urinate they burn very badly. I started putting neosporin on them yesterday, but they are definitely still there and still painful.
I just went to the Gyno 2 days ago, but I didn't mention anything about the cuts because I figured they'd go away, but now I'm geting worried. It was just a yearly annual, so will the doctor be able to see if these cuts are something else besides simply a cut?
Hello, I recently found a small lesion on the left edge of my girlfriend's perineum. It is very shallow and perhaps 1/8" wide and 1/4" long. I believe it was smaller two weeks ago. She says it doesn't itch and it is painful when she wipes the area, which is how she discovered it. She traveled to Asia in January.
I have a bum on my gum on the left side of my face behind the last tooth. Some people are saying it might be a caker sore or an abscess. The bump became bigger and I noticed a white substance inside of the bump. It grew bigger than with the help of hot water and salt it began to drain. First question what is this on my gum? How long does it take to heal? and Should I go to the dentist after it fully heals?
i have these series of clear liquid filled bumps on the perineum area of my body. I have tried to burst these before, with clear liquid coming out first followed by blood.

Please can someone tell me what this is and what i may do to cure it??? I'am too nervous to go to the GP at the moment.

About a month ago i noticed some persistent itching on my scrotum on both sides.. i scratched them a lot. the next day i have what appears to be a red flat rash on both sides of my scrotum. I am 27 years old and married. The itching has been worse in the evening and early morning. I am typically good with hygiene i.e showering daily until recently since my wife and i have a newborn daughter and time has not allowed for much time other than to take care of her.
they did a ct and found out that it was an abscess. it was 1 inch by 3/8 inch big. they gave me iv rocephin and drained the abscess. they put me on 250mg of keflex 4 x a day and 300mg of clindamycin 4 x a day for the next 10 days. talked to my dentist this morning and have a follow up appt. with him on weds. then if all goes well i will hopefully get the tooth that is causing all of this pulled next week.
many, many years ago (at least 10), i found a small, somewhat hard lump on the lower right side of my labia majora. until very recently, it has never bothered me in any way. however, just a couple of days ago, it has started to be quite painful and it appears to have grown a little in size and darkened. please tell me what this is.
