Anal itching
Hi,
I am a 46 year old male and I frequently get anal itching and the line above anus becomes very itchy. Both of these happen during night only. The line above the anus gets so itchy that I scratch it so much that the skin comes out...
I had a fissure/fistula long time back and was operated and I do have to put pressure during bowel movement.
Can someone prescribe some non-steroidal cream?
Thanks
