What Causes Itchy Anal Area Along With Sleeplessness?

My bum hole is itchy.. is that a bacterial infection?
Also i find that now I'm able to even sleep for 12 hours.. i am 19 and this is all pretty recent, I've always loved my sleep but i don't wake up when I'm ready i just keep sleeping... could that mean my body is tired cos my immune sysytem is fighting something?

Thanks :)

Hello
Welcome to HCM.
It may be due to bacterial or fungal infections.
If associated fever, take paracetamol or ibuprofen.
For fungal infections, tablet fluconazol is best but take after consulting your physician and do lab tests.
You can also apply bacterial and fungal cream.
Take plenty of fluids.
Don't take any medicines without consultations.
Hope these all will be helpful.
Thanks for contacting.
Take care....
