Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I have read your post and understand your concern.
It appears that you could be having abrasions of the skin in the anal area due to which you could be experiencing itching sensation in the region. Candid cream would only help if the infection is fungal and hence kindly stop using it as it would not be effective in your case.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Wash the area twice daily with warm water and mild antiseptic solution like Povidine.
2. After it dries, apply Neomycin with Hydrocortisone cream in the affected region.
3. Take Tablet. Levocetrizine once a day to control itching.
Keep the area under good hygiene.
Kindly take care to have enough lubrication and use protection like condom while indulging in such activities.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
