Suggest Remedy For Wound On Butt Due To Scratch
Hi, I have a scratch in my butt. I had that when I used the toilet paper about 2 months ago. It hurts when I poop, but it was fine after a few weeks later. I thought I was ok and the wound had healed. But It is happening again now and hurting again and the wound is not healing. Can you give me any advice to heal it?

Hello
Please:
- keep good local hygiene, wash with warm water and soap, rinse well, Pat dry with soft tissue
- apply betaine solution
- then apply tripple antibiotic ointment twice daily
- apply zinc oxide cream locally during the day
- avoid using toilet paper after bowel movement
If still no improvement, should see proctologist.
Wish fast recovery
