Question 1

my anus burns after i poop, why?

Accepted Answer

Probably: Have an anal fissure. Avoid spicy food and acidic foods such as all tomato products, drink 80-100oz of caffeine free/alcohol free fluid daily along with a high fiber diet. If it doesn't resolve within a couple of weeks, see a colon and rectal surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.

Question 2

my anus burns for some time after i go to poop. and some times it itch but not when i am pooping . and i spent 30-40 min a day to poop which is a lot ?

Accepted Answer

Needs: examination. anal irritation from stool, infection and anal fissures are some of the common causes. If constipation present and blood on tissue may suggest hemorrhoids

Question 3

every time i poop i get a burning sensation in and around my anus. i am also wiping blood and my poo is always loose any advice?

Accepted Answer

Further evaluations: It sounds like you may have hemorrhoids.  However, other etiologies can present similarly such as rectal trauma/tear.  Treatment is mostly symptomatic management such as use of softer toilet paper and topical witch hazel.  A colonoscopy/anoscopy by an appropriate specialist may be warranted

Question 4

i'm having a terrible burning sensation in my anus and around it. it's paining a lot when i am trying to poop. i am not even able to sit properly.

Accepted Answer

Anal pain: Many different problems may be causing the pain you are having:  std, abcess, fissure, external hemrroid are only few of the possibilities.  You need to see your doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment.

Question 5

could you burn your anus by wiping too much/hard after pooping?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Excessive wiping of the anus and the surrounding skin and particularly using soap or shampoo to clean the anus could irritate and damage the skin and cause itching. Itching by itself causes the urge to wipe the anus and further damage the skin. There is a disease called "Pruritus Ani" (it means itching of the anus) which could be caused by excessive cleaning habits and too much wiping.

Question 6

for the past 7 or 8 years; my anus burns when i poop and i have blotches of blood on the toilet paper. sometimes a lot sometimes a little.

Accepted Answer

Proctologist: Your symptoms are suggestive of an anal fissure, and because of the long duration of your symptoms,I recommend that you see a proctologist for diagnosis and proper treatment. You need such a specialist to ensure proper and complete healing of such a chronic process.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Yes: Pain and blood as a consequence of chronic constipation. You need to modify your diet, drink 6- 8 glasses of water, increase you fibers, vegetables and fruit intake. Take some laxatives/stool softeners. If no better, you need to consult with your physician.
