What to do if you have pain outside the anus

The pain around the anus, which appears, should be analyzed for its causes and treated symptomatically. First, it is more common that the anal gland infection may spread along the anal canal to the perianal area to form a perianal abscess, which can be clearly diagnosed by perianal ultrasound, showing a more intense pain, and should actively perform perianal abscess incision and drainage. Secondly, if the patient had mixed hemorrhoids in the past, a large amount of alcohol or diet stimulating food can easily make the hemorrhoid nucleus swell and the hemorrhoid vein stagnate to form a thrombus. This is a purple-colored swelling around the anus, which is painful to touch, and the pain is intense. This is the case should be actively surgical treatment, you can perform thrombus stripping or external hemorrhoidectomy. Thirdly, if the patient has a history of squatting or hitting, or if a foreign body damages the rectum and anus, sometimes it will also manifest as pain around the anus. If a fissure is visible around the anus, you should also actively keep the fissure clean and locally disinfected. If the infection is short-lived, one-stage suturing can be performed. If the local infection is long, the wound should be opened and sutured in the second stage.
