Been with the same person for 5 years, and have had anal sex right from the start. Now, just a question, but for the past year or two, i've noticed that there are these little balls that are black/bluish is color under the skin and around the anus. They sometimes pop out but do go back in. Haven't gone away at all. Too embaressed to talk to the family doctor.... don't really wanna bend over with butt in the air.. lol.
anyone have guess to what they are??

It's called hemorrhoids. Also known as "piles". It's dilation of blood vessels in your anus. In other words, varicose veins around the anus. You can get them from childbirth. Doctors have seen them, it won't be a surprise.

There is nothing to be done with them unless they start breaking and causing bleeding, or become painful. In that case, there is surgery to remove them.

They might very well have been caused by frequent anal sex, or childbirth or they might be an inherited genetic weakness, aggravated by the anal sex. Do any of your parents or siblings have them?

If they don't bother you, don't worry about it. The next time you get a physical, your doctor will see them, as they usually do an anal probe as part of a standard physical.

A friend of mine recently told me about a new procedure for removing them. Instead of surgery, they inject saline into them, and they just shrivel up. Similar to how they get rid of spider veins on legs or on your face. It sounds a lot better than surgery!

It's funny how people think about doctor visits. We all have our hang-ups. I've never had anything that I was ashamed or embarassed to tell a doctor. I'm sure anything that I would say would be mild compared to what they've heard or seen already.

I have one though, and the young girls probably wouldn't understand it at all...I don't shave, but I've tried it once or twice, and every time I do, I pray that I won't get sick and have to see a doctor, because I would be mortified to be seen that way. Probably because when I was young, only prostitutes & hookers shaved. Probably since most of my doctors are way younger than me, they wouldn't think anything of it, but I sure would!

PS: In the "olden" days when I was having babies, they always shaved you completely before delivery. So, if you had a new baby, it was "ok", lol They don't do that anymore.....progress is wonderful!
