What Causes Bad Odor From A Small Hole Near My Anus?
Years after having a really bad tear while giving birth, I've notice a foul and embassing odor coming from a small hole near my anus. It smells when i bare down to urinate. It will start to smell right after I bathe. I have been on all kinds of antibiotics, Cipro. They work while on them but a few days later the smell returns. Went to the Dr. and he says the hole doesn't led to anything. So. why does it smell so bad? Help Please.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
What problems you could be facing is infection of fistula-in-ano, on and off and that is why you are experiencing this bad odour, which would subside with intake of antibiotics.
You need to consult Surgeon in this regard and undergo fistulectomy operation for its permanent cure. Kindly do to overcome the same at the earliest.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
