Brief Answer:
You should use Lidocaine jelly locally.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
As per your description, it looks like your rectum /anus has been injured after diarrhea. In my opinion, you should use Lidocaine jelly as ZCAINE over the counter locally. Many patients benefited with this.
You should take high fiber diet, clean drinking water, eat fresh fruits and vegetables. If your stool is soft, healing will be fast.
Nothing to worry. It will come down.
Hope I answered your query. If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
Regards
