Had Anal Abcess. Hurting On And Off, Lipitor Blood. Is This Normal?
Hi my name is Kevin. I had an anal abcess drained 3 weeks ago, it started to feel alot better but now three weeks after it is hurting on and off again. It's always worst after pooping and get some relief after taking a hot bath. It still feels like it is draining and notice a Lipitor blood. I'm not sure if this is normal or should I go back to the dr. Thanks

Hello,
You had Perianal abscess and underwent incision and drainage.
You still have some pain which is more while defecation and relieved by hot fomentation.
His area is prone for repeated infections due to anatomical reasons.
There are signs of infections due to presence of pain and bloody discharge.
Consult your doctor for a good antibiotic coverage.
