People with Crohn’s disease often suffer from symptoms such as: perianal disease. The cause of this disease is fistulavery painful abscess,Infection, anal fissureand cut.
Symptoms of perianal disease
a perianal abscess It’s a collection of pus upon or in your rectum. In my case it’s on the inside. Abscesses can fill with pus and infection, may appear spontaneously, and may swell to form a visible lump. It can cause severe painful movements. Abscesses are usually warm and painful to the touch.
Abscesses can cause symptoms such as: fistula (tunnel through the rectum), which can cause infections to occur once or repeatedly. These forced infection tunnels can push outward toward the surface, causing further abscesses, bleeding, pain, swelling, and anal fissures.
anal fissure A small tear or fissure in or around the rectum. Deeper skin tears may also occur.Sometimes they heal and go away on their own skin tag, However, sometimes an evaluation is necessary for treatment. Even if it heals, it may tear again.
Fissures may include pain and bright red bleeding with or without defecation. It may occur if your bowel movements are hard or difficult to defecate, or if you defecate too often. Cracks can cause itching and discomfort for several days.
Your doctor may recommend it. sitting bath This treatment is to keep the affected area clean, but surgery may be recommended for chronic fissures, fistulas, and abscesses.
My experience with perianal disease
I noticed that I had an abscess. upon Around 11pm, an abscess developed in my rectum. That night, while I was sleeping, the abscess had grown and I woke up with pain inside my butt.
The abscess was so severe that I was rushed to the emergency room. After tests, doctors found it would be too painful to cut him open without sedation, so emergency surgery was performed to relieve the pressure.
My rectum (part of which was removed) took six weeks to heal with painkillers and sitz baths. In the end, I had to remove the gauze from the opening myself.
After this surgery, doctors discovered: fistulaThis happened, so another surgery was scheduled. I ended up having a fistulotomy and it took another 6 weeks for my butt to recover. It was not possible to strain or put pressure on it, it was forbidden to strain, and even had to sit and bathe. My surgeries are detailed in “Crohn’s Disease ‘Scope Series’: My Painful Fistulotomy” and “Crohn’s Disease ‘Scope Series’: Perianal Abscess.”
