A member asked:

Im a 30 yr. old married female whose been on the pill for a few years now. the flesh in between my anus and vagina is painful, swelling and tender.

Get checked: This could be an infection called a perirectal abscess. It requires drainage if that is the case. You need to be checked. I doubt being on the pill is related.

Dr Samuel and another doctor agreed
