Hello doctor! Dear doctor, I gave birth normally 1 month ago. In the days after giving birth, when having a painful bowel movement, it was difficult to pass, I knew it was normal. But in recent days (about 3-4 days) after defecating, near the anus, I often have a pus-filled and fragile protrusion, making me uncomfortable and painful. So let me ask, is it dangerous to have a pus-filled bump with a fragile, painful defecation after giving birth? I hope the doctor can help me. Thank you doctor!

Hello! I don't know if during normal delivery, the obstetrician will perform the episiotomy or not? The symptoms you describe point to a localized inflammation in the para-anal region, not excluding a superinfected hemorrhoid. So, with the question "Is the pus-filled bump with fragile, painful defecation after childbirth dangerous? “You need to be examined by an obstetrician and gastroenterologist to be able to accurately assess the lesion and give you specific advice. You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System for more specific advice from doctors.
