My boyfriend also has this problem. He has 2 holes above his anus that bleed very often.

I read a while back that it may be due to some problem with the tailbone, He had a minor accident a while back, bruising his tailbone, and that's about when the holes showed up.

It's gotten very bad lately, and the two holes are getting so big it looks like they're about to become one.

Hole above anus FROM BIRTH

If it is a hole that you have had since birth it is actually called a "Sacral Dimple." This is different from the Pilonidal. Check out Sacral Dimple [LINK REMOVED]
