What Causes Itching And Inflammation In Anus?
My five year old daughter s anus hole is super red and itchy. I presume the problem to be with the way she is wiping. We have been working on proper wiping techniques but I m not always there to supervise. Any suggestions on what to use for pain and irritation? I am currently using baby powder in her underwear at night.

Hi Dear
welcome to the HCM,
Anal itching is usually and commonly associated with the worms.
First he should be deformed properly.
Some soothing agent containg zinc oxide or calamina to be applied in the anal opening for the relief of the symptoms.
Hope the query is answered.
thanks
