i have this bump that is very sore and very raw but doesnt seem to be draining anything that i can tell of anyway. it has been coming and going the last few months and i really didnt give it much thought but this time it is extremely sore and seems more swollen than usual. i am currently going into a flare and fistulas really concern me. i have never had one and have felt lucky to not have. i am currently on no meds since there are none that work for me. have tried every classification of drugs and they all have failed. does this sound like a fistula to anyone? i just dread going to my gastro since he is 1.5 hours from me. just want to know what it is like to have a fistula and what are the signs of one. i guess i should make that appt on monday.

thank you. i was kinda scared that it may be that but not shocked. was just telling my husband that i will have to get into my gastro. i now am having more tenderness in the anal region and lots of itching. i will call monday and make that appointment. i cant take remicade or any of the bioligics so. i am sure they will find something though. thank you for your help. kim ;o)

Have you called your ob/gyn?? Just a thought, perhaps it isn't disease related and is something your lady doctor can give an opinion on. In the meantime, perhaps a bath with epsom salt to try to get some relief to the area.
