What Causes Anal Itching?
My daughter is experiencing anal itching. We have been to a GP who checked her over and there is nothing showing on her skin. We did a stool sample which came back negative, so we went to a GYN who performed a swab for a yeast infection, which also came back negative. We are stumped as there is nothing showing on her anal area, no rash, no bumps, nothing to see. Would you have any other ideas?
