Chronically itchy anus, when i scratch in shower white residue comes off?

Could be yeast: A yeast infection causes itching and white residue, and can affect your anus. You should have this evaluated by a physician. Examining the residue under a microscope can reveal whether it is caused by yeast. There is medication available to treat yeast infections.
