Some thoughts: Using a donut shaped cushion can relieve pressure on the area when sitting. A sitz bath (a device you can get from a drug store or medical supply) can be used on your toilet to circulate warm water in the area, and it can be soothing. Over the counter pain relievers may help. If simple measures fail, see your primary. You may needs testing. Pain is this area is a challenge.
