Treatment Of Lumps Near The Anus?

I have suffered from this symptom 2 years ago, at that time near my rectum the salam part had a lump, and sometimes it hurt when I sat, at that time I checked with the doctor but I forgot what the diagnosis was, what I remember I was given antibiotics so that the lump of pus is gone, the price of the medicine is 50.000/tablet/capsule, is it true that I have an abscess? And what is the name of the 50,000 antibiotics? thanks

Hi Ariefrdsy,
A lump in the rectum can be caused by an anal abscess. An anal abscess is a pus-filled lump caused by an infection in the small glands in the anus. Anus abscess can cause complaints of pain, especially when sitting, anal skin redness, warmer, constipation, and discharge of pus from the anus. Anal abscess treatment will be adjusted to the patient's condition, it can be by cleaning the pus sac, surgery, accompanied by antibiotics and painkillers.
But keep in mind that a lump in the rectum is not only caused by an anal abscess, but can also be caused by several other things such as:
Infections of the skin around the anus: folliculitis, ulcers Hemorrhoids / hemorrhoids Anal fistulas Anal fissures Genital warts Venous thrombosis Anal mass whether it is a tumor, cyst, or malignancy Are you currently experiencing the same symptoms again? I suggest that you see a doctor directly so that further examination can be carried out to determine the cause if necessary, supporting examinations such as ultrasound, MRI, CT scan, biopsy. Furthermore, if the cause is known, the doctor will provide the right treatment for you.
Regarding antibiotics, we can't confirm the type just from the price. In addition, the use of antibiotics must be on the advice of a doctor and under the supervision of a doctor. The use of antibiotics that are not in accordance with the indications are at risk of causing germs to become resistant / resistant to antibiotics.
