Hi guys,
Long and embarrassing story here, but will keep it short and sweet - would really appreciate your feedback ASAP!
Basically, it started with sharp pain in the anus, pain with BM's, walking, sitting etc. As well as this I had a pain under the skin near my coccyx (posterior area more towards my coccyx).
I assumed I had a fissure, the doctor then prescribed me with an ointment and antibiotics (Flucloxacillin). meanwhile I did my regular STD checks (every six months) and found out I had Gonorrhea of the rectum. This left me totally confused, were all these symptoms linked to the STD or was it truly a fissure.
I now feel 99%, gonorrhea treated and waiting for the retest results to return, but with the massive amount of anti-biotics I am not constipated with a hemmy outside and possibly one inside.
My question is - I have a feeling of needing the toilet when I do not need it and the occasional shooting pain down there. and if i force my finger far enough around my posterior area it feels as if my tailbone/ end of my Sphincter is bruised??
By the way this all started on the 5th of Jan, I have been pain free for about 3 weeks, but as I said i'm not 100%.
Could this bruised like/needing to go feeling be internal hemorrhoids (I did visit my GP on the 10th of Feb who said its highly unlikely at the age of 23 to have anything sinister there, and that an abscess will not form in the area that I feel bruised occasionally?
I really hope someone can help me with this one.
TJ,
