So I have been dealing with this problem for over one year now. I have seen four doctors (including a GI and proctologist) but have yet to get any answers. For the last year I have had pain during my bowel movements, often accompanied by bright red blood when I whip. I went to some doctors and one told me I had a fissure. So I changed my diet and followed his orders. After two weeks the doctor tells me that the fissure is healed. Then end? Nope. Though my BMs have become more regular and less painful, I still see and feel something that just isn't quite right. Plus I have incomplete evacuations almost every time I go. So last week I go to another doctor. He tells me that I don't have a fissure but that my skin is dry and that I need to moisturize it regularly.
To sum up, I saw four doctors. The third one said I had a fissure. Followed his orders. He says fissure is now gone. See a fourth doctor and he just tells me to moisturize.
What is particularly frustrating is that there are two things on my anus that nobody, other than myself, have been able to see. I swear that I am not crazy so I did a little gymnastics and snapped a photo of the anomalies in question. I know these things aren't the loveliest of images but if somebody could please give me some incite as to what they may be I would be so grateful.
One anomaly is a dark purplish color and the other one (right next to the first) is hard and whitish in color. What are they? Can I make them go away?
As a new member I cannot post links so I am currently unable to provide a photo here. If anyone is willing to help me, please message me and I will send you a link to the photo.
Any help or advice would be very much appreciated. This has been going on for so long now, I just want to be past all of it :/
