Answer 1

Lumps: possible hemorrhoids, better see a doctor

Answer 2

Yes: Absolutely.

Answer 3

Better: To use an antifungal powder than an ointment in the anal region.

Answer 4

It requires caution: Anatomically things are just not set up for that. It must be done carefully or it can have significant consequences. Anal sex is very much an individual choice and like other more common sexual choices it should never be forced on anyone. Taboos come in many forms. It's up to the individuals involved to make their own choices - just be smart about it.

Answer 5

Anal is taboo?: If u believe in god this is what he thought us and what he advices and remember what happened to sadoome and gamura . In addition u can't have children with anal sex and u can expose u self to multiple diseases.

Answer 6

To each his own: I think that if you asked twenty people in a row you would get twenty different answers. If you are certain of your relationship you could ask. To actually know you would almost have to ask each individual every time. Sexual choices are one of the most varied and personal things we humans have.

Answer 7

Not all guys: There r certain religious believes that consider this a big sinn.

Answer 8

Depends: The nerves that supply the genital tract run in parallel with those in the anus. For those who appreciate this stimulation, the parallel sensation can enhance pleasure. Guys have the addition sensation of stimulation of the prostate by this route provided an extra buzz.But many find this not to be pleasurable so always engage in these activities with mutual respect.

Answer 9

See a Dr: Many things could cause these symptoms, from something "mild" like a tear or inflammed hemorrhoid. Other times it could be from an infection (prostate?) or even an abscess. Rarely this could be from a growing tumor. To help you rest better (both physically and mentally) i suggest seeing someone...

Answer 10

Agree: You need to be properly evaluated by a colorectal surgeon or gastroenterologist. Don't ignore this. It may be an early warning sign of something serious and the sooner it is evaluated, the better off you will be!

Answer 11

Depends: Bumps can be external hemorrhoids, abscesses or venereal disease such as anal condyloma. Let an expert examine you and offer the correct approach to management.
