What Does Swelling In The Anus Indicate?
Hello, I m a 24 year old young man, 112 lbs and 5 11 in height. About a 2 months ago I had anal intercourse and before then I haven t had anal sex in about 2 years. But for about a month now, I ve had this itch on my anus and then soon realized my anus was partly swollen and painful so I assumed it was a hemorrhoid so i went to treat it with some over the counter medication but my anus is still partly swollen (no pain or bleeding) but is helped the pain and reduced the swelling greatly but i would still like to know why it hasn t completely gone down
