Brief Answer:
Fungal infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Probably you have developed fungal infection.
The perianal area is a common site for this.
Another reason can be pin worm infestation.
I treat such cases with a topical antifungal cream like clotrimazole to be applied twice daily for a month.
Also take tablet albendazole 400 mg single tablet for worm infestation.
This should help you.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
