Hi
Thanks for your query.
You suffer from external piles and per anal dermatitis due to that. You need good toiletering, which includes to keep the peri anal area dry and clean after every wash. You may apply barrier creams like zinc oxide creams. Steroid creams will reduce the itching and inflammation immediately but can cause problem in the long run. It is better to consult a dermatologist.
Good day
