Anal Area Is Red, Itchy, And Bleeds. Pain When Touched. Remedy?

Anal area is red, itchy, and bleeds . When I use the bathroom and wipe, there is little pink blood stains that are very small. Usually I would pass this off as a rash and goes away in a couple days with the use of baby powder . Have been using baby powder but no help at all. Went so far to take a picture and it looks as if it s a big rash on the left side of my anus . It looks like a half circle with the anus being the middle and the outer part is kind of white/dull purple. The rash area also looks purple-ish towards the anus. Sorry for being so graphic but was worried. Thought I d look online before I see my doctor. *It does not hurt when I use the bathroom. Only when I touch/wipe. Does not bother me through out the day either nor at night. Just gets very itchy and discomforting through out the day. Thank you

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having some local infection might be fungal infection.
Due to itching there might be some infection resulting sore area giving rise to pain, discomfort and slight bleeding.
Apply anti-fungal cream locally.
Take tablet Cetrizine for itching.
Avoid constipation.
Ok and take care.
