The anal medication applicator includes a long narrow hollow tubular container with an open front end, smooth closed sides and a generally central space connected to the open end, in which space the anal medication, solid or liquid is disposed. A plunger is disposed behind the medication in the space and extends rearwardly out of the container, for ejecting the medication gradually or suddenly out the front of the container. The plunger may be spring biased with a catch to releasably hold the plunger in the rear position. Upon release of the catch, the plunger will fire forward, suddenly ejecting the medication. A first set of electrical resistance wiring connected to a rheostat is disposed in the container around the central space to heat the medication. A second set of electrical resistance wiring controlled by a second rheostat can be utilized, separated from the first set by a thermal barrier in the container and disposed adjacent the outer surface of the container for heating the container before insertion into the anus. The applicator thus can provide selective heating of the container and/or medication for maximum utility and comfort. The applicator can be used in the treatment of hemorrhoids and for the prevention of Aquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
