Have Strange, Pink Blotches Around My Anus. Had Fissure. Any Idea?

I have some strange blotchiness around my anus , it s not red exactly. It s more of a light pink? I have previously and may still have fishers so I don t know if that effects anything, but its very bothersome and looks very strange. It s not irritating or itchy regularly, it just is a weird light pink blotchy thing. Do you have any idea what this is or what I can do to make it go away?

Hi,
thank you for query
You may. get some steroid cream from your doctor. This takes the redness and irritation away. I would only use it about every other day and apply a thin coat of it. Avoid getting inside your rectum.. only on the skin (crack). It will take about a week for remval of blotches.
You might check to see if you are Gluten Intolerant. I have the exact thing as you do, and I believe it has to do with the allergies. You may have developed a yeast infection in the area. Try to stay off of gluten products for a week, if you notice an improvement, then go see if you are gluten intolerant. It is a simple blood test to find out gluten sensivity.
