SHOULD BE HAPPY BUT STILL CONFUSED

I went to my second dermatologist appointment on Tuesday. During the 1st appointment the Doc said I had a yeast infection in my anus. He gave me two presciptions which cleared up alot of the mess. When I returned, he said I was about 80% cleared but some redness still remained. He onlu looked for about 10 seconds. He did not look with a magnifying glass or anything like that. When I got home and looked I still see small bumps and acluster of bumps. Should I go back to him or get a second opion? Can a yeast infection cause these white and flesh type bumps?

Does anyone know if warts at the opening of the anus can be frozen off or is surgery needed?

I did not. But to me they are very easy to see. Like I said he looked very quickly and said he was confident I did not have warts BUT I have trhese small flesh type circles at the opening of my anus. What else could it be. Do not think that is a fungal infection. I hate to make yet another appointment byt maybe I should. Do you think I should wait to see if they start to clear up on their own?

Did you point out the bumps specifically? If not, you may want another visit. I think that most dermatologists would be vary capable of diagnosing warts though.
