I have only noticed the bruise since i noticed the pain approximately 24 hours ago.
there is no itching or discharge from the spot im getting the pain from (i know i wrote it was at the top of my butt crack but i mistyped and i meant its just at the top of the butt hole) it doesnt feel like iy has any heat in it. my bowel movements arent great due to my prolaspe but are no different to what i would consider to be normal for me at this stage. pain is coming from area which i have circled.
