What Causes Rectal Discharge And Burning Sensation Around The Anus?
I seem to be experiencing leakage from my anus. Sometimes just a little fluid (not sure if it is blood) and after a bowel movement even after I totally clean myself, later I have burning around my anus and discover more fecal material. What could cause this? I am 71 years old and in good general health

Hi,
Could it be an anal fissure or early anal incontinence? You should be tested for the same.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
