I had this problem since I was 14 years old, I fall on concrete and this problem came to my life, those years were horrible, there were days that I couldnt walk, I couldnt even try doing exercise and i have this types of headaches that no one could ever imagine, fever with it, puss and blood and this bump in the middle of my ass. It was a nightmare, I went to many doctors three surgeons and different dermatologist until I found this doctor that was a surgeon, she help me, I got general anesthesia and the process was 2 to 3 hours long. My recovery was really bad, I spend a month and half without sitting, I could only sleep in one side, couldn't go down, couldn't lift any heavy thing, couldnt go to toilet and couldn't takes baths by myself. One of my stiches broke up so it hurt a lot. They took my stiches out two weeks later that, now it's has being 3 months and I still have little problems getting used to. I still haven't done no exercise, no bikes, no long running, no jumping no anything. Finally I am fine now.

       drainage does smell but very very little , the color of drainage is clear with a little red in it, it does not drain all the time, for example when i am at work and standing all the time so like after 3 or 4 hours, I go to bathroom and as soon a i sit on toilet drainage start coming, drainahe usually come when i bend, sleep straight, or sot on a toilet

      If it smells bad , like rotten you need to go see your doctor. If it just smells like blood you should be fine.

    i have had 3 operations over the last 10 years and now after my last operation 4 years ago , it seems to have come back again. but ive no pain beacuse of the operations i have had in the area has made it numb. i notice there is once again a daily discharge. The doctors i have been to dont seem to no what they are all about. for example my last doctor i seen 2 weeks ago i had to tell him what one was and which antibiotics i should take (im no expert yet haha).i have that horrible feeling this is just one of those cycles that just keep going around.
