Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing to us.
According to your history, your symptoms are mostly due to constipation, which leads to Hemorrhoid (pile) or anal fissure.
I would suggest antihistamine like cetrizine 10 mg for itching for 3 days.
Apply xylocaine2% gel on affected area for pain and burning sensation. Apply after bowel movement and before bed and clean the area with soap before applying.
I would give you lactulose laxative 10 ml before bed for 5 days .You can get this by your local doctor prescription.
Additionally I would like to give you some suggestions.
First, you need to avoid constipation. Drink plenty of water.
Eat fiber contains food especially oranges.
Avoid oily, spicy, fast, junk food and Restrict intake of meat.
Do regular physical exercises at least for 30 mins per day.
Sitz bath: take warm water in a tub, add 1 spoon of salt, cover your anal area, sit for 15 minutes, and do it twice a day. It will give you relief from pain.
Hope I have answered your query.
