Hi,
Thanks for using health care magic.
I have gone through your available history.
Discharge might be because of Infection. So you should consult your surgeon to rule out possibility of infection or piles if any.
There are chances of flaring up of infection while having anal sex.
So before doing anal sex, you should take consent from your surgeon.
Thanks
