I would like to know will drinking loads of water and eat fruits/vegetables make the itchyness of my anal (anal tag) go away?

Anal pruritis: 24 year old woman with anal pruritus. You need to visit a physician to have an examination. Itching can be due to certain foods or detergent soaps, but it can also be due to infection with parasites. Your doctor can take a sample of your stool and test it for ova (eggs) and parasites. Stay calm and go for the examination. https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/patientinstructions/000689.htm
