Home » Perianal & Perirectal Abscess
A Perianal abscess is a collection of pus that forms in the soft tissue around the anus, while a Perirectal abscess is deeper and occurs in the space surrounding the rectum. These abscesses are typically caused by blocked anal glands, infections, or underlying conditions like Crohn’s Disease, especially in children and immunocompromised patients.
Pain and swelling near the anus
Redness and warmth in the area
Pus or drainage from a boil near the anus
Fever or chills in more severe infections
Irritability or discomfort in children during bowel movements
In infants and children, the condition can be easily mistaken for diaper rash or general discomfort, so careful examination is crucial.
Diagnosis is made through clinical examination, and in some cases, ultrasound or MRI may be used to determine the extent of the infection.
The standard treatment involves:
Incision and drainage (I&D) of the abscess to release the pus
Antibiotics, especially if there’s a surrounding infection or fever
Wound care and hygiene management post-procedure
In recurrent cases or if a fistula (abnormal connection between the skin and rectum) develops, fistulotomy surgery may be recommended
