Hey guys. Have a bit of a health scare going on and wondered if anyone on the board has had something similar, or the same happen. I don't have health insurance at the moment so I can't see a doctor.
Right. So a bit of background about three years ago I got chlamydia from some dirty girl and stupidly waited a few weeks to get it treated I don't know if it was embarrassment or what but after about three weeks I went to the hospital when my ankle blew up they did tests and told me I had chlamydia they gave me a shot of antibiotics and that was that or so I thought my ankle and knee we're still kind of blown up so I went to a rheumatologist they told me I had a reactive arthritis and diagnosed prednisone for a little over a month and that helped calm everything down I still had very slight stiffness in my affected joints during the mornings and what not and that slowly gotten better over the last few years. However I am still paranoid about the permanent long-term damage I did buy waiting a few weeks to get my chlamydia treated. So now onto the good stuff.
About a few months ago when I was making a cross-country move to the West Coast and dealing with a lot of anxiety and loneliness from being away from my family I felt a kind of crawling sensation and irritation in my anal region/anus. I asked my mom and she said that it was due to stress and to work out a little bit so I did and that cleared up. Fast forward to a month ago and I got what I thought was a hemorrhoid. Anal pain Right on my anus now I couldn't see anything and there was no blood but there was definitely pain on my anus so of course remembering about the chlamydia I went right to the health clinic and got an STD test everything was clean. So now my symptoms included slightly lower back pain and pain in my penis like a sort of sometimes doll sometimes sharp pain and the scariest thing was a numbness radiating from my tailbone and going down my butt ox and legs basically a nerve pain when sitting down.Doing more research online I realize that this could be due to poor posture and sitting for too long and in a bad position. My posture is actually quite crap and my sitting position is also quite crap I'm getting the idea is that it's some sort of levator any syndrome or something related to or my pelvic floor or pelvic muscles because the pain is really only bad when I'm sitting when I'm standing or walking on it's not that bad or even noticeable. I also researched or came along the fact that someone online had nerve damage and urinary incontinence from a chlamydia infection he got a few years ago so that's scaring me as well do you think I've done permanent and progressively getting worse nerve damage from the chlamydia those three or four years ago? And or has anyone had this sort of pain and numbness radiating from the tailbone but ox and anal region due to poor posture? And if so what sort of exercises and therapy good you? I can't to see a Dr. at the moment I'm looking at getting a better job with health insurance and have an interview this week but this is giving me a lot of anxiety and depression in the meantime. Has anyone had these sorts of symptoms.? I'm thinking this could even be prostatitis possibly something with my prostate because of the perineal pain. I have read about Escogue exercises and how poor posture and such can affect your organs by putting pressure on them as well as your nerves in your pelvis etc
If so what helped you? The few things that I can Point out or my poor posture with standing and walking as well as my poor form of sitting down where I'm not sitting correctly. What should I do? I feel like this could be prostate or anal cancer even and I'm freaking out. Please help thank you
