A member asked:
Got a hemorrhoid in area between my balls and anus. how can this affect anal sex for me? it always burns/hurts when i do anal even with lots of lube!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May or May Not: The area in question is called the perineum, and a bump in this area can result from several conditions. Some are infectious, either viral or bacterial (molluscum contagiosum, condyloma or abcess) versus hemorrhoids or skin tags related to prior tears and in rare cases cancer. Any sexual activity raises risk for sexually transmitted infections, so i suggest an in-person appointment for evaluation.

Is it safe to have anal sex with non-painful internal hemorrhoids? It was caused by not using lube before, but I always use lube now and am w/o pain.
