Ive been dealing with persistent itching now for several months. I'm not quite sure what the cause is!? Several months ago I trimmed down my anal hair very short and after it began to itch like crazy. So I used some of the usual remedies many of them I've used in the past. I tried fresh aloe, coconut oil, hydrocortisone cream, desitin, calmoseptine, yada yada and yet still not much relief. I thought the itching had something to do with my coarse hair rubbing the skin, but I'm stumped as to why this keeps going on.
I've tried washing with a mild soap as well. I tried using conditioner to soften the hair there. All provided just a very temporary improvement. I was hoping once my anal hair grew back to its usual length this itching would stop.
I do go to the bathroom quite a bit, but no real change in bowel habits. I've always gone 2-3 times a day. My stool is usually pretty normal, although I've had the occasional bout of looser stools, and obviously that doesn't help the itching. I clean up using a bidet sprayer and cold water helps a bit.
I've thought that removing some of the hair just around the hole would make think better, but not if it causes this horrible itching. There are some posts about laser hair removal and waxing your own butt. I'm just a little hesitant, as i dont want to make things worse! Thanks for reading. Please I welcome any comments/suggestions. Some have suggested I go get waxed by a professional idk if that would help or not.
