Anal swelling and itching
I get anal fissure sometimes. From past 2 weeks I have been getting an uncontrolled intense itching around anus. Usually in nights and after emptying bowel it gets worse. From past few days i have noticed swelling around the anal hole and again the itching comes in waves and goes. I apply SURFAZ SN cream it provides some soothing but not completely. What is this problem?
