I 26F Developed Fissure After Starting something new With Bf 29M. Should We Stop It Completely? /u/ThrowRA_Bullfrog_192 Sex

My boyfriend (29M) and I (26F) started experimenting with anal around a month ago. Initially, there was some swelling and discomfort, but since we were new to it, we assumed it would just take time for things to settle. However, last week I felt sharp pain during bowl movement, so I decided to see a doctor.

Turns out, I developed an anal fissure. The doctor prescribed medication, which has helped a lot, but they also recommended we take a break from anal for at least 3-4 months to allow proper healing.

Now I’m conflicted. Should we try it again after the healing period? If so, how can we ensure this doesn’t happen again? Or should we just stop pursuing this altogether? I don’t want to go through this pain again but also don’t want to completely rule it out if it can be done safely.

Would love to hear thoughts and similar experiences.
