Hi I have been suffering sever anal pain for the past three weeks now,
its just a sever soreness around the anal area, which gets worse when i
sitll still for an hr or so. There is no itching, no discomfort when i
make bowel movements, just an incredible painaround the area, which is
costant. I have tried hemarroid cream, and some hydrortison cream
without success, anyone have any ideas on what it may be, and what to
use for a best cure? Thanks

Such pain is often related to spasm of the internal anal sphincter, the
question is what's causing that spasm. Anal fissure comes to mind, as does
the possibility of a thromobosed external hemorrhoid. A definitive diagnosis
would be impossible without examination, and I'm afraid you're going to have
to see a doctor to get that sorted out.

I would certainly hope that if the person had external hemorrhoids of any
kind (clotted or not) or if he had prolapsed internals, he would see them.
You not only feel the pain, but you can feel them with your fingers by
simple touch examination, and all you need is a flashlight and a mirror to
see them :-). I have been examining my anus from the outside for 35 years

Dr M is correct in that it is simply guessing and it should be looked into.

It sort of reminds me of the post on penis irritation above.

"The symptoms of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome include
difficult and sometimes painful urination, discomfort or pain in the
perineum, bladder, testicles and penis as well as difficult and painful
ejaculation. In some cases, these symptoms can be indistinguishable from
those described above for chronic bacterial prostatitis. "

Sometimes physical therapy can help in muscle tension induced pain or alpha
blockers.

Just something else thrown in the mix, CPPS.

Robert...I wasn't saying that it shouldn't be looked at, but merely saying
if the person had external hemorrhoids he would know it (or should be
intelligent enough to know it). And you don't want to get me going on CPPS,
prostatitis, urethritis, cystitis, BPH, etc. Perineal pain can be difficult
to solve at best, even after the gamut of tests (including scans and
endoscopies). I have an inordinate amount of suffering and experience
pertaining to the subject of perineal pain (to this day). I have at least
five things wrong with me, and urology problems are right up there near the
front. Take care...Pete
