Anus iItch after wiping
Posted: 10-03-06 09:32am

Hi, I didn't find an appropriate topic listing so I put it in here if that's ok.

Does anyone find that after they go to the toilet and wipe their bum too much it gets itchy a while later. I don't know if it's a psychological thing but i'm not sure that it's worms, it probably is...

I don't believe that is normal and you should really see your doctor about this. That could possibly be hemmroids. Btu def get it looked at.

Could Be Worms
Posted: 10-23-06 04:07am

Hi, I feel for you. Itchy bottom is quite common. It could be thread worm. Here in the uk all you do is take one tablet and if you feel ok about asking your family to take one, they could do with taking it as well. It is very contagious and mainly passed on by children. At school etc, with all that contact, it is very easy to pass on. If your bottom is more itchy at night, this could what it is. Rather embarrisingly though, you may want to get someone to have a look up there. Not sure how old u are but if you have a husband/wife im sure they wouldnt mind. So there you go, it could be threadworm. Nothing scary about it, the ablet just kills it off inside.
