HCC oint+zinc oxide: It sounds awful! try getting some otc 1% Hydrocortisone ointment and apply to the affected area twice daily. At night, apply zinc oxide paste as a protectant. When wiping after a bm, moisten the tp with cetaphil cleanser and be gentle. If it is not better in 1 week, see a dermatologist.
