I’ve been having anal pain and swelling for couple of weeks now. There is also burning pang in my bladder and rectum while urinating. I lost some weight during this time. I am ashamed of having my butt checked, but this pang of anal pain is persistent. I know that is not sex related because I never had anal sex before. What could be the possible cause?
Well, I got pang only from reading your message in which you said that you are ashamed to exam your butt. How old are you? It is completely normal. Don’t let the shame to prevent you from getting the care you need. Anal pain can be caused by several condition and you need to be evaluated from physician or urologist. I have anal pain occasionally from the hemorrhoids. They come and go. It is common for the people of my age. I treat them with diet and meds. However, I am not disciplined and they tend to recover after some time. I am not sure that this is your problem because the issue with urinating that you’ve been having. I guess that could be some infection or gastrointestinal disorder. Take care.
