Can anxiety cause itchy anus and bleeding ?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Can but: More often it is excessive caffeine intake which sometimes occurs with anxiety. Stop all sources of caffeine, drink plenty of other fluids and use corn starch powder liberally on your bottom and the skin surrounding your anus. Should resolve in 7-14 days.
