A member asked:

I've had very frequent diarrhea all day and my butt is starting to hurt like a burning sensation what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Anal irritation: hello ~ this is not an infrequent complaint of people suffering from diarrea. Wash clean with water and a mild soap. Use vaseline applied before and after defecation and you could even apply some 1% OTC hydrocortisone as well 3-4 x a day in severe cases. thanks
