Suggest Remedy For Bloody Sores In Rectum

I have been getting sores in and around my rectum they come and go and seem to get infected easily. Today I decided to try some hydrogen peroxide and they seem too feel less infected. Is this ok? I have also noticed a recent decline in muscle strength around the rectum. I don t know what is going on but its harder to keep this area clean. And they bleed after a bowel movement. Thanks.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of getting sores around the rectum- anus which bleed on passing motion, makes cleaning difficult, get infected easily and have applied hydrogen peroxide , feeling reduced muscle strength around rectum/anus.
The commonest causes of multiple sores around the anus as explained by you are:
Tuberculosis.
Crohn's disease
This can be diagnosed by:
Biopsy of the tissues alone can give the proper diagnosis.
If a specific cause is found the complete course of treatment can be curative.
If there is presence of multiple fistulae, you may need medical as well as surgical management to get a cure.
Additional supportive treatment is by means of multivitamins, therapeutic dosages of vitamin A and D.
Local application of solution povidone iodine and hydrogen peroxide is definitely helpful.
Have proper diet which is nutritive and does not cause constipation.
