Question

I am 67 yrs old and would rather get my answers here than anywhere else. Thanks

Answer 1

Constipation can cause anal discomfort. If it is an infection or fungi, it can get very serious.

Answer 2

I would try tucks pads. It helps take away some of the itch. Good luck!

Answer 3

pin worms can and do cause itching, but hemorrhoids can also cause itch and discomfort. I'd advise you to go and see your doctor.

Answer 4

more than likely its hemorroids. Just wash up back there. and apply an anti itch cram like cortizone and itll probably go away
