What Causes Muscle Ache And Flushed Skin After Having Anal Sex?

Hello.A few nights ago, I had unprotected anal sex in which I was the receiver (bottom). Starting the next day I had pretty bad muscle pain, but I dismissed it as our time was pretty rough. Today I started feeling flushed, and my skin is aching. I am worried that I contracted something serious, have you encountered many situations such as this?

Thanks for opening out your problem with HCM.
Your guess seems to be correct. Anal sex per se has nothing to do with the body ache. Probably you had vigorous movements during the sexual act which could have given you body ache.
I presume when you say your skin is aching, you are referring to skin around the anal region. Again that is most likely due to rough act you had. However, just find out whether there is any internal or external injury in and around the anus. If so, you will have to show it to the concerned physician and get properly treated.
I do not see any reason for your flushing. If this is your first experience of anal sex, you might be under stress which can give you feeling like flushing.
