Brief Answer:
You need to be examined
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Thank you for posting your question on HealthcareMagic.
The symptoms of burning could also be exaggerated due to constipation please take laxatives like Syrup Duphalac 20ml at night for 15 days .
The symptoms you are having could either be due to a fissure or haemorrhoids.
You need to be examined by a general surgeon to rule out either of them .
Meanwhile to reduce the intensity of burning you could sit in a tub of XXXXXXX warm water.
Please take high fibre diet.
Hope this helps
Best wishes
