Suggest Treatment For Wetness Around The Anal Area

default
Posted on Mon, 1 Feb 2016
Question: Hello?
I am a 22 year old man and as of late I've been experiencing wetness around the anus region, not enough to coincide with Rectal Discharge (Not enough fluid when compared to cases I've researched) and there is always an absence of blood and absence of smell, My significant other says it may be the lotion I've been using when practicing anal masturbation and it's just my system trying to wash it out, I'm just not sure. I don't have medical insurance yet; still waiting for that to clear- I just need to know if there is anything I can do as of now to help myself (I've stopped using the lotion)

Good hygiene and few investigations required

Detailed Answer:
My Dear Sir

Welcome.

I am Dr V XXXXXXX a Dermatologist.

I have reviewed your details. I will do my best to help.

Under these circumstances it is likely that some element of improper hygiene might be at work. Taking care of that should releive problem

It is also likely that it might be some infection. In this case there would be some kind of swelling, pain, smell, or other symptoms. if that is apparent, then a culture test of secretions will tell about the organisms and suitable antibiotics

It is desirable to maintain good hygiene and get blood sugar levels checked to rule out diabetes as a cause.

I hope you will make good use of available information. I will be there to help in case you need it.

Best wishes

Would increasing fiber in my diet help at all?

My condition that I have stated before is clearing up, no longer is any fluid present, I am taking in more fiber to deal with the fact that I believe myself constipated.

Thank you so much doctor.
