I don't know if this is the proper place to post things like this but oh well.

About one year ago I had an infected leg from a spider bite. I was put on an IV antibiotic to clear the infection. It left me having a hard time going to the washroom the #2. I remember this one time because it really hurt and it felt like something cut me. Everytime I go to the washroom It hurts sooooo badly for hours on end. I bleed a hell of alot. Anyone know what this is. The pain hurts like a son of a ,,,,,,

I did go to the doctors once and he gaves me some creams but they didnt work..I have been so busy I haven't been able to go back. Any suggestion on what this is?

Doctor now.

I can't think of much that can possibly be more important than this in your life. You have no idea the types of complications that can arise out of this.

Thanks moose I will go. It has been a year I think its an anal fissure which is tear up inside the butt. Do you think if I go to the ER this is peddy? Or should I make an appointment with my doctor and wait for it?

Dude, this is the their general/philosophy room. At least post this in somewhere more relevant. I was thinking you were going to talk about your thoughts and theories on "Hell" and here you are going on about your pain. Of which, I'm sorry, I don't know what a spider bite is like and I really hope I never know, but your thread did kind of waste my time. I know I'm not helping myself more by writing back, but it bothered me enough to write this, so here it is.
