Suggest Remedy For Chronic Rectal Itching

My anus have been itching lately. Sometimes just before I poop and continues to itch even after washing my anus with soap and water. There have been times when I was awakened at night because it got itchy again. I had my stool checked but it came out normal.

Hello,

You have to check stools for parasites several times. Doing the test only once doesn't exclude parasites infestation.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
