What Causes Pain In The Anus?

default
Posted on Tue, 12 Sep 2017
Question: I have been undergoing Anal fissure treatment thru a gastro doctor and now fissure has healed upto-90% . But I had pain in the other area of my anus and the doctor checked my anus and given Ornio for 5 days (morning 1 and night 1 tablet), he said small blood clot was noticed. while taking it I felt better and after the dosage was over I again started feeling the mild pain symptom. Now my doctor is out of town and I could not reach him .
What is the reason for recurrence of the pain ?
Can I continue ornio for 5 more days or how many days ?
Why did the pain recurring after the dosage ?
What is the background for giving ornio ?
Root cause of the pain for which doctor has given this tablet ?
How should I cure this ?

Brief Answer:
Infection of healing site.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear Patient,
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic for your query.
I have gone through your details and i appreciate your concerns.

Ornio contains antibiotic ofloxacin and anti protozoal called ornidazole.It has no role in controlling pain post operative.However it control's the infection of operated site by bacteria and protozoans.
In case you feel relieved after taking Ornio, Yes you can take it twice daily for 5 more days safely.
However it would be more effevtive if is taken with anti inflammatory analgesic like Tylenol.Take Tylenol thrice daily.

Why?
See Ornio would control multiplication of bacteria's and protozoan's at site of wound while tylenol would help to relieve inflammation caused by infection of bacteria and protozoa.

When you take Ornio bacterias at site of wound are killed hence pain subsides but as soon as you stop it the residual inflammation causes pain to reoccur.


So as explained above root cause of pain is infection of site of wound by pathogens.

Line of treatment-
Swab from site should be taken and sent for microscopic examination to rule out infection.
Culture and sensitivity test should be done to find out that to which group of antibiotic are pathogen's sensitive.

Most likely the sensitivity of bacterium to ofloxacin is minimal in your case therefore as soon as you stop dosages pain reoccurs again.

Broad spectrum antibbiotic like Cefixime400 mg twice daily is a better option but intially get a culture test done.

To hasten up recovery take vitamin c 500 mg once daily along with folic acid supplements.


Review with report.
Hope i was helpful.

Thanks!
