Not sure: Really should have a medical evaluation to determine that there is not medically treatable cause of your itching. Several medical conditions can cause it. Also want to think about any new environmental changes, (ie new soaps, underwear, new toilet paper, etc) that might be a cause. Also keeping food and bowel diary to see if there is a link between symptoms and what you eat. Hope this helps.

Anal itching: If your itching is due to hemorrhoids then you need to cut spicy foods out of your diet. Try to avoid sitting for long periods of time. Have you Dr. determine if you have intestinal parasites to make sure you are treating the rite thing
