Whats the cause of an itchy a**s?

Question

I've been way to embarresd to ask this for way to long.sometimes my a**s gets so itchy it feels nearly as bad as a mosquito bite.i meen the more i scratch the worse it gets.i have tried using E45 cream to reduce the inflamation but its just not working sufficiently.

i run quiet a lot,maybe 40 miles a week and am wondering is it from sweating.but i wash carefully and daily and even when im not running the problem persists.

please help before i tear my own *** apart(ha ha)

Answer 1

This sounds like the sweat causing this - try Lanacane anti-chaffing cream after carefully washing and drying the area.

If you have piles get some cream from the chemist for that.

Another culprit could be a fungal infection, but you would have a white coating to the skin - if this is the cause you would need some canestan.

Answer 2

Could be piles, don't be embarassed, go to the Doctor, you won't be the 1st or the last to have such problems, so try not to worry about it too much

Answer 3

If it is getting worse with touchnig, it is probably hemoroids and as many might say, "Go get some cream," it really needs to be checked out by a Doctor.

You can BLEED TO DEATH from hemoroids...just in case you didn't know.

STOP scratching and make a Doctor's appointment! NOW!

Answer 4

Could well be the sweat - also poor hygiene or worms. Go get it checked out!

Answer 5

You could have worms...............you can pick up the tablets in Pharmacy without prescription.

Answer 6

This could be hemorrhoids or an infection. Try using witch hazel on the exterior. Aloe gel also  helps.  Use Gold Bonds powder to keep the area dry.  Also, eat more oily fish (for example salmon).

Answer 7

it could well be from running, with the sweat that would gatherbetwwen your buttocks. try using talc (non perfumed). it may also be thread worms, which you can treat with a tablet from the chemist
