Hi,
You developed irritant dermatitis due to exposure to laser.
You know that the anal area skin is fine and thin., so the mild effect cause more damage.
The skin would become sored,erythematous ,fissured and tender.
Irritation may lead to itching also.
Now, avoid anxiety and keep patience.
The morbidity will recover in few days to weeks.
Apply antibiotic cream like nadifloxacin cream.
Keep cool water sponging.
Do not put pressure in deafication.
Take antihistaminics and antibiotics orally.
You may take oral steroids in tappering dose.
You will be alright in few weeks.
However,You consult dermatologist.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
