Purple Spot Afterwards
Hello Mrs. Gehring, it's me again, 25 years old, lupus patient. About 5 years ago, I was a little scared of an anal fistula... my anus was always a bit irritated, but nothing was found by the doctor... Now, about 2 months ago, I felt a slight irritation to the right of the anus, it hurt a little but I didn't see anything in the mirror... I also thought it might be irritation from hair... Yesterday evening, it briefly pricked, and when I touched it, I felt a slight bump, really small but noticeable, maybe like a small pimple... Unfortunately, I could only take a photo, where you can see a small purple spot! Now I'm really scared of a fistula... However, nothing is coming out and in my opinion, there is no opening... or could it be the first signs of an abscess? But no feeling of tension, and no problems with bowel movements so far... I hope you can reassure me! Unfortunately, I can't attach a picture right now, it's a small purple spot far outside near the anus, almost transitioning to normal skin.
