Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I m 39 years old 5 -9 and 190 lbs. I eat a good diet and exercise. Years ago if I used baby wipes I would get anal itching and it seems like that condition has returned. I started using hydrocortisone 10 for the itching which has helped but when I took a pic to see what my skin looked like I noticed a small polyp. I have no bleeding or pain, and I haven t noticed any change in my stools. I m going to see my Dr but this has me really concerned. I have a pic but it will not let me add it.
