I HAVE NOT HAD ANY OF THESE TELLTALE SYMPTOMS:
discharge
blood in urine, semen, or stool
fever
An anal fissure can cause all of these symptoms. A friend of mine went 3 years with one, getting very similiar symptoms to yours, and he was in agony. He was also hsv2 positive, and was given high doses of antivirals, tried many antibiotics, etc. etc.
He finally saw a great doc who did an exam, and found it.
I know its not thrilling to share your intimate details with your doc, but you need to, so they know what to look for.

And make no mistake - I don't condone cheating. I just look at this as a health issue, not a moral one.

3 years with an anal fissure for your friend? Is he ok now? what was the treatment he had to solve the problem? what can I try at home?

sucks to be human sometimes! we're such "animals" in so many ways. i wonder if our celebrated "intelligence" really amounts to much in the face of our simian weaknesses?
thanks for your help.
Make sure to drink plenty of water when you start the fiber diet. If you don't, you can get bloating and gas. Not fun, I promise. ;)
