I found many references to this rare condition, but thought maybe it could give some ideas to people who do not heal at all : (, maybe histological analysis for this type of aberration can give some answers. As I said, those cases are VERY rare but obviously do exist. This case is just one of many I found on the net by typing Helicobacter Pylori (bacteria that causes stomach and duodenal ulcers) and words "anal pain".
What papers said was that some people have rare incidence of mucosa growth in anal area that was non healing and bleeding and that after histological analysis (looking it up under a microscope) researchers found that it was very much like the mucosa that we find in the stomach and so was susceptible to attack of Helicobacter or similar organisms that caused ulcerations or polyp growth !!!!
They said they found about 30 cases so far , but hey - HOW MANY DOCTORS ACTUALLY LOOKED FOR THAT POSSIBILITY AT ALL !!!!!!??????

Abstract We report the case of a 9-year-old boy who presented with chronic rectal bleeding. On proctosigmoidoscopy, a polypoid elevation in the rectal ampulla measuring 5x3 cm was found. Biopsies were reported to show gastric mucosa. The Giemsa stain showed Helicobacter pylori-like organisms. Including our patient, there are now 30 similar cases reported in the medical literature. The usual manifestations of this rare entity are chronic bleeding and rectal pain. In one-half of cases there is chronic rectal ulceration. The recommended treatment is transanal surgical resection unless there is rectal peptic ulceration. H2 receptor blockers are then advised. Surgical excision is carried out after healing has taken place.
