Collection
of pus and skin infection in the area around the anus (Perianal
abscess and cellulitis): A 66-year-old man presented with
a 2-day history of fever and throbbing pain around his anus. The
pain was worse on sitting, coughing, and straining. There was
evidence of a boggy feeling around the left side of the anal area
(collection of pus)with a large area of redness as shown. The
collection of pus (perianal abscess) and skin infection (cellulitis)
were a secondary infection of a fungul infection around the buttocks.
