A member asked:
Is it ok to use preparation h for anal itching / dryness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't recommend: Anal itching is usually due to excessive caffeine intake or excessive moisture. Prep h won't hurt but probably wont help if either of the above are the cause. Correct the cause.
