Hi
Thanks for your query.
After having gone through the problem in your query, I am of the opinion that he is apparently having abscess around the anus.
He needs to be examined by a surgeon for proper assessment and the abscess has to be drained surgically under anesthesia.
Since most of these abscesses are caused by a perianal fistulas, if found the peri anal fistula should also be excised completely to prevent the recurrence.
Hope this answers your query.
