Rectal Injury Posted: 11-28-07 01:08am
i had a rectial injury a week ago last
sunday the 17th. what happened was i was
in my apt cleaning on top of my puter
stand and where i thought where the small
ladder was , it wasnt i grabbed the puter
desk which has 2 doors on it and it
started to fall and my butt fell rite on
the corner of the opend door and it ripped
a bout a 1/4 inch wide by 1/4 inch deep
hole just in front of my rectum. i bled
alot and now it is oozing bron smelly
stuff. it is finally going away. im using
a left over bottle of trip antibiotic
ointment on a piece of paper towel and
stuffing it in the hole. it still hurts. i
went to the va and they said they couldnt
do anything for me. but the smell is very
noticeable. every time i have a bowel
movement it scrapes the wall where i
injured it. i put peroxide on it and then
another piece of folded paper towel with
trip antibiotic oint.. its still running
and bleeding. i called the va and the
nurse keeps telling me there is nothing
they can do. it is in a spot where no
stiches can be put and they see many of
these injuries. they said just keep
packing it and keeping it clean. can
someone shed a little lite on the healing
process? ive never had an injury like
this. and the va wont tell me diddly. i
goggled rectal injuries and all it has is
about cancer. is there any other links
that are more into bowel injeries like
mine? or rectal injuries like mine? not
cancer.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
