Hello, I m goingnto try to explain this the best way I think is accurate. My butthole every once in a while is really really itchy and when I get a shower, if even the smallest amount of water touches my hole it is one of the worst pain I have ever experienced. It feels like there are 50 really tiny paper cuts around the hole and someone dumped salt water on it. Why is this? And I m very worried because my son is 17 months old and his butthole is really red and half is butt is red, but it wasn t like that an hour ago, and when I wiped him he screamed like I ve never heard him scream before and was in severe pain when the wipey touched his butthole. That s the first thing I thought of is what happens to me, what is there to do for him? Please help!
