What Causes Persistent Itching In Anus?

I had an intense itchy anus for ten days after bowel movements. I do not get any intense itching at night. However i have taken a dose of albedazole six days ago which appears to improve my condition although i am still getting very slight itching now and then. My problem started after three days of constipation. Could my itching be caused by something other than pinworms.i have also changed my.hygiene routine now by simply ysing warm.water and dabbing with tioilet tissue rather then using soap and/or rubbing hard with toilet tissue.
