What Does Soreness Around The Anus Indicate?
my husband is having soreness around his anus. He recently had bleeding symptoms, was hospitalized and had a colonoscopy. He was diagnosed with a mild case of diverticulitis and sent home. This was 2 weeks ago. This soreness just came up now. What could it be?

hello welcome to healthcaremagic.
this soreness can be due to constant bleeding from anus or due to inflamattion or due to itching. it can also be bed sores if he sits cross legged a lot.
please buy a zinc oxide lotion
also please take anti inflammatories like indomethacin and have some anti histaminics like levocetrizine at night before sleeping.
i would also advice SITZ BATH twice daily.
i hope this helps. please feel free to revert back.
thank you
