I am a 26, male. for the past 3 days i have an itchy rectum more at night and when going toilet. the day before i had spicy food the next morning went out few times.

Anal itch: Spicey foods can irritate the anorectal area.Another possibility is a perianal dermatitis. After wiping following a bowel movement, apply warm soaks to the anus, pat dry and apply a cortisone type cream(may burn) or ointment(doesn't burn). If itching persists, consult your physician or a proctologist.
