What To Do For The Itches And Burns On The Rectum?

Embarrasing to ask...my rectum burns and itches really bad. For a year now it gets really sore after a movement. I wipe really hard, so I may have caused damage.?? I can wipe until clean and an hour later I burn and itch and wipe again and it s like I never wiped the first time....

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some local skin infection like dermatitis or yeast infection.
Due to lack of personal local hygiene this problem might be there.
Clean the part gently without giving more pressure and apply triple action cream.
Take Cetrizine or levo cetrizine for itching.
In absence of itching there will be speedy healing.
Take plenty of water.
Avoid constipation.
Clean local part with running tap water throughly.
Ok and take care.
