A member asked:

Infection and anal leakage, what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Colorectal surgeon: You need to be examined to be sure that you are not forming a fistula from the bowel, a perirectal abscess or some other form of severe issue. See a colorectal surgeon if possible, if not, a general surgeon.
