What Is This? Skin Problem In Perineal Area Posted: 02-05-07 21:55pm
About five years ago, I noticed a small
lump in my perineal area. It wasn't
painful, so I ignored it until it
ulcerated about a year or so later (i
don't remember how long it was). It was
like a pimple or boil and would ooze when
popped. A year or more later, I had a
baby (at home). I didn't notice the
problem during my pregnancy, but shortly
after birth, the cyst or whatever filled
to the point that I could hardly walk
until I finally popped it. Now it oozes
slightly nearly every day. It's not
incapacitating but annoying. Occasionally
it fills up, causing local and low back
pain. This is gross, but when it pops
puss sometimes emerges from both the
vagina and the anus.
I'm sorry this is so gross. Does anybody
have any idea what this might be?

hmmmmm, does it sometimes go hard and dry
up, and then go soft when it fills up?
does it have a hole in it, or is it like
solid?
sounds similar to wat i have, only ur's
sounds worse, no idea wat it is, but then
things seem to move slowly here

It sounds like you have a recto-vaginal
fistula that has a tract to the perineal
area. The only way to fix it is surgery.
have you had more than one child? I would
go to a colorectal specialist to see if
thats what it is.
