Q: Very Interesting Problem...

I haven't seen a doctor about this and i'm not sure that I should. I have another hole that is just above my anus. It doesn't lead anywhere but its definitley a seperate hole. Has anyone ever heard of something like this? I'm not sure how long i've had it but I would guess all my life. When going to the bathroom, the last part of my stool doesn't come out all the way and I have to wait for a few for it to. This hasn't been the case all my life but rather has started maybe a year or 2 ago. Sometimes I get anal irritation but not very often. It mainly consists of itching and a little pain. I never get any type of blood and my stools look pretty regular with your occasional odd colored one like everyone else. I play many sports, workout, and i'm 22 years old.


Has anyone ever heard of something like this before? I actually read somewhere else about someones wife having this problem but no one responded to his post.


Thanks in advance,
josh

Anal Fistula
I too found another hole...
I did some research and apparently it looks like it's an anal fistual. You probably had an ulcer that burst and now there's a canal leading from your rectum to the outer skin... You have to get it surgically removed if that is the problem.
I am going to see my doctor about it...
