HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern the given history here is suggestive of perianal abscess and that need to be drained first and anti- biotic should be initiated one more important thing is this should be differentiated with the "fistula" in short great care need to be taken for this ideally the pus or the contain what ever it may be should sent for culture and sensitivity, hope this information helps you have nice day.
