Suggest Treatment For Itchy Anus With Bumps On Cleft Between The Buttocks
Hi I have had an itchy anus for around 3 weeks. There is a ring of bumps in the inner butt cheek area, but the anus itself itches also. Sometimes my butt crack is moist but i clean and dry well. The itching lasts throughout the day and night, I try very hard not to itch but sometimes I have to.
Hi. It is probably due to moisture leading to a small fungal infection there. Clean and dry thoroughly after bath and apply an antifungal powder in between your buttocks. Also if you eat roadside foods regularly then you mighta also consider a dose of deworming with Albendazole 400 mg one tablet at night after dinner. To be chewed and then swallowed. Some intestinal worms lay eggs around the anal opening and this causes itching sometimes.
