The skin around my ass is torn/raw

[Buranri]

Not sure how else to put it. Right by my anus there are two little places that look like the skin is raw, or kind of cracked. Hurts like a bitch whenever I use the bathroom. No blood on my actual... waste, but there's usually a bit when I wipe. Will this just clear up on its own?

Ummm yesss it should be fine if you leave it but to be safe you should maybe rub some germaline cream on it or something. You know, to make sure it doesn't get infected..

[ackmedsgirl666]

sounds to me like hemeroids
u should get it looked at
until u get to a doctor try and keep your bum clean
use wipes and clean it after pooping or wash it to avoid irritation

[Jen Jones]

ouch, it should clear up

[TheBigUnit]

use a moist toilet paper or flushable wipes, and dont wipe hard, and dont hold it in, if it hurts for over a week and the pain increases or is the same tell doc

Probably a burst hemorrhoid. It should go away in a few days and stop bothering you, if not I'd definitely see a doctor about this.

I'm pretty sure it's hemorrhoids. It's caused by to much pressure on your anus, so the blood vessels burst. So basically stop pushing so hard. You can try moist wipes, but it will go away in a few days. Most of the time it's something so minor, it's like getting a tiny cut on your arm, that's how minor it is. I won't say how often I get those, but I get them a lot. Just go nice and slow when wiping, and what I sometimes do is apply a little lotion to the area, cause it could get raw from constant wiping. Also, drink more water so you don't push as hard. Constipation is a sign of dehydration. You can also try certain creams for hemorrhoids. But if you don't, the healing time can take anywhere from 3 days to a week. Depends on how much you wipe. But keep it clean.
