Anal Itching After Wiping, Arms Also Itching, Red Bumps. Have Excema. Are These Related?

I am a 34 year old female who has anal itching. It itches on the inner part of my cheeks and around the hole. It itches only when i wipe back there and once i scratch it its okay until i wipe back there again. I also have excema and have been getting a rash on the inner part of my arm. My arm will start to itch and when i scratch it i notice little red bumps will appear. Could these be related to my anal itching? I scratch my bottom so much i'm afraid im causing tears in my skin.

Hi, it appears that you might be having the allergy to the material of the tissue if the brand is new to use. The other causes could be the worms in the intestine, which usually itch during night only, but occasionally it may in day time.
I advise you to consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
