Medical Question & AnswersComplications after anal sex
Ali Tahir asked 6 years ago

Hi. I really need some help . To get to the point I am a 27 year old male. I was under the influence and had unprotected anal sex for the first time ever three months ago. I cant believe we were so stupid about how carelessly this happened and I regret it with all my being now. It was rough and it hurt so we had to stop. I do not think my anus has fully recovered. It has not felt the same since as I have had on and off pains and discomfort in that general area since; mild internal pain every now and then for day or two at a time. Fastforward to now my anus gets sore on one side or the other everyday. No itching at all ever. During this time I kept checking for visual signs and some days the anus ring would just look inflammed and somedays i was just experiencing discomfort inside, somedays it was just sore in areas. As of now It hurts and looks like when your skin gets damaged by friction. A week ago that wasnt the case – but this is it in its full form. I cannot figure out what it is, hemmorroids / fissures / herpes / an STD I cannot tell – and it just refuses to completely heal – there are days when i barely feel any issue but then it starts all over again. For some reason i also have a hunch that it gets aggrevated by my working out. I am extremely embarassed of this – i live in an extremely conservative part of the world culturally and religiously so going to the doctor and dealing with it is going to be a very difficult situation for me. If only someone can give me any idea as to what it could be it’d be immensely helpful. I cannot explain the stress and discomfort this is causing me.
I have attached pictures below (view at your own discretion).
