Does Hemroid Cause Itching?

I went to work and I had a hemroid , it itched pretty bad. Then it went from my hemroid itching to my scrotum itching EXTREMELY bad for about an hour. I had to fake sick and go home it was so excruciating. I've never felt that level of itching on my scrotum area ever in my life. I haven't had sex since January of 2013. Help me out doc, do I have pubic lice? Or do I just have to much itchy I unshaved hair around my scrotum/anus area along with hemroid?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi. It looks there is itching in perianal , scrotal and around areas.
Hemorrhoids can cause itching due to leakage of mucoid material or local infection for which You have to take antibiotics and anti- itching medicines like cetirizine.
Itching in other parts can be due to sweat/ dermatitis/ small wounds one inflicts on excessive scratching etc. You can apply locally liquid povidone iodine to kill the bacterial infection. Clean with soap water and dry the area with cotton cloths , Keep the area well aerated- use loose undergarments and pants. Lice can be seen - if present do an anti-lice treatment with OTC anti-lice products.
