According to Medicalnewstoday, the anus lacks the cells that create the natural lubricant the lady parts has. It also does not have the saliva of the mouth. The rectum’s lining is also thinner than that of the lady parts....CONTINUE READING THE FULL ARTICLE>>>
Increased risk of bacterial infection
Lack of lubrication and thinner tissues increase the risk of friction-related tears in the anus and rectum. Some of these tears may be very small, but they still expose the skin.
Because stool that naturally contains bacteria passes through the rectum and anus when leaving the body, the bacteria can potentially invade the skin through these tears.
This increases the risk of anal abscesses, a deep skin infection that usually requires treatment with antibiotics.
Increased risk of STIs
Because anal love making can lead to bacterial infections in the ways we mention above, it can also increase the risk of se*ually transmitted infections (STIs).
Examples of these include chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis, HIV, and herpes. These can be long-term conditions, as many STIs do not have a cure.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “anal s*x is the highest-risk se*ual behavior for HIV transmission” in comparison with other forms of love making.
In receptive anal love making, or bottoming, HIV is 13 times more likely to infect the bottom partner than the insertive partner.
Worsen hemorrhoids
Anal love making may irritate existing hemorrhoids, but it is unlikely to cause them.
Hemorrhoids are areas of blood vessels inside and outside of the rectum that can cause itching, slight bleeding, and sometimes pain.
While hemorrhoids can be unpleasant and painful, they are easily treated and very preventable.
Anal love making can irritate existing hemorrhoids for some people. However, anal love making itself is not likely to cause hemorrhoids if a person did not already have them.
Increased risk of fistula, a rare complication
In very rare instances, it is possible that a tear in the lining of the anus or rectum can grow larger. Doctors call this a fissure or large tear.
Sometimes, this tear is so big that it extends beyond the bowel to other parts of the body. Doctors call this a fistula.
A fistula can be an emergency medical situation because it allows stool from the bowel to go to other places in the body.
Because stool naturally contains significant amounts of bacteria, having a fistula can introduce bacteria to other parts of the body, leading to infections and damage. Doctors usually suggest surgery to repair a fistula.
