What Causes Pain And Itching Sensation Around Anal Area?

default
Posted on Thu, 19 May 2016
Question: So about a week ago I started having burning urination so it obviously hurt to pee, the Dr took a urine sample to test for syphilis and clamydia and they came back negative. The burning is pretty much cleared up but I noticed that my anus has a itch feel to it now and when I touch the bottom of my penis and rub there a sensation that runs through my penis to my anus. What could be the cause?
