Q: anal irritation
asked by: mercer94 on November 21st, 2008

i've had mild anal irritation for a few days i.e. a little itchy, dry, sore. it's not by any means terrible, but annoying (and a little concerning.) i just had a stomach virus for about two weeks so i was on antibiotics for a few days, had a really upset stomach and could eat almost nothing but rice, broth, apple sauce and bananas; maybe all this commotion has caused these symptoms? has anyone had anything similar? how long before i should go to a doctor? any advice would be great. thanks Smile

I know, the Rx you are taking can cause Yeast infections in some. I've experienced similar symptoms, and went to the doctor, only to be told I shouldn't worry about it, and it can be caused by the moisture in my panties or clothes, and recommended me to wear loose fitting clothes more often, etc.
Another thing that I did for the symptoms- I applied diaper rash cream in the area. It seemed to really help.
I'd try it. It helped for me. Good luck. Smile
