I recently came off of the flu, during which my normal, high fiber diet of about 3500 kcal/day went to around 500 kcals. After returning to my normal
diet two days ago, I have discovered that the
skin between my buttocks is very irritated, and slightly painful to the touch.
Related: I am experiencing clear, oily discharge seep out of my anus in small amounts sometimes throughout the day. I think it may be partially responsible for the skin irritation, but I'm not sure.
