Pain like a needle prick between the testicles and anus is usually caused by conditions such as abscesses in the perineal area. Perineal pain is a common symptom, and patients may experience frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination. If diagnosed with acute suppurative inflammation, a prostatic fluid examination should be performed. The perineal region harbors a large number of bacteria; when resistance is reduced or damage to the skin or mucous membranes occurs, bacterial infection may develop, leading to abscess formation.
