Suggest Treatment For Swelling In The Anus

Question: I had anal sex for the first time and now my anus is swollen. We are both disease free and this was our first sexual act.
It stings or hurts a little when I defecate. The penis only went to very beginning of the anus entrance. Definitely not the rectum.
Also no blood at all.

Brief Answer:
Could be a small fissure
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing in
The history points to probably a fissure in ano
having had a look at the picture I do not find any evident fissure but clinical complains point to the same
I would suggest you avoid anal intercourse and apply Lignocaine jelly twice a day at the anal verge
If need be take diclofenac 50mg twice a day
Hope this helps
Do write back in case of concern

Brief Answer:
It is unrelated
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing in again
The sensation of need to move bowels and gas are unrelated
If left untreated the fissure will go chronic if it is there as I can not justify the same from the picture
It takes around eight to ten days to heal on it's on
Hope this clears you doubts
Get well soon
