Is This An Anal Fistula, Constipation, Or What?
Posted: 02-18-04 15:58pm

Warning, this subject is gross and embarrassing so if you don't want to be grossed out don't read this.

Okay, so I have this liquid discharge stuff coming out of my anus. It has a bad odor and is a lime green color. I've been searching online for information about this and I found that anal fistulas have this as one of its symptoms. The other symptoms are pain around the anus and a swollen anus along with drainage of blood and pain in the lower abdomen. I have no pain or blood and I don't think my anus is swollen but I wouldn't know what a swollen anus feels or looks like. I only have one symptom so i'm not sure if this is something else. I also think I had constipation a few days ago and don't know if this is related. I had the symptoms of passing a motion less often than usual, having to strain to pass a motion, a feeling of incomplete bowel emptying, straining was ineffective and no motion was passed and quickly felt full in stomach when eating. I'm not sure if this anal discharge is a side effect of that. Constipation can be caused by a lack of liquid so I thought this might just be that liquid. And sometimes I will also get diarrhea after eating. I usually get it if I haven't eaten in a long time and then do eat and sometimes I will get diarrhea after only eating cereal for breakfast or having a snack. I've also read online that diarrhea is a sign of constipation so i'm not sure if this is related to it or not. I probably have diarrhea once a weak and i'm not sure if this is normal or if I have a weak stomach or constipation. I don't think I have constipation any more but I am very concerned about this anal discharge. I have no clue what is going on or what is normal or what i'm supposed to do or anything. And i'm not sure if this information is important or not but i'm also a female and a teen.

I think you may have irritable bowel syndrome. The constipation and diarhea go with it, and the anul leakage, but I don't know about the green part of it. I would definately see your doctor though to make sure it isn't anything more serious.

If you had a fistula, you'd have an exit hole somewhere near your anal opening that leaks fluid. If this is just in the inside, it's very doubtful it's a fistula. If it is, it will not be easy to treat and will require difficult surgery. Fistulas actually don't really cause any pain unless they are deep up into the muscle, so I'm not sure where you read that. And don't settle on an IBS diagnosis, that's total crap and there's no way to actually prove anyone has it, it's just a convient theory of garbage so doctor's can push people out the door, give them pills or useless advice and forget about it. However, this could be an anal abscess if you're experiencing pain there and in your lower abdomen. If it is, you need to get it drained immediately. Does it seem to be getting worse?
