Brief Answer:
Fissure in ano with sentinel piles

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
To recapitulate: male/63 - sores - feel like wart around rectum - very painful on cleaning up after bowel movement - hemorrhoids for many years ....
Painful sores at the anus are usually due to fissure in ano and the wart like things are sentinel piles secondary to fissures.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Sitz bath in a tub with warm water.
Laxatives for smooth motion.
Consult a Doctor for clinical evaluation, examination and give you a prescription based antibiotic, metronidazole if the Doctor feels so.
Take probiotics and high fiber diet.

This will help for proper diagnosis and management.
I hope this answer helps you, please feel free to ask for further relevant queries if you feel that there is a gap of communications.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
