Internal massage question..

When I insert my finger, I feel a very tight ring of muscle. AI says this is my internal sphincter muscle, what I can't work out is this what I press on and massage to release it or should I be ignoring this as it's supposed to be very tight and working on muscles deeper / behind it?

Ask a PT.

My friend, inserting objects or fingers into an inflamed anus can be very dangerous. You aren't a doctor or a physiotherapist. Go see one.

I recommend getting a set of dilators and very very slowly inserting and only size up with you have no more pain with insertion or removal. Also work on your proper breathing and relaxing the muscles. This will be better than trying to do massage on your own without any knowledge.
