Treatment of burning and itching in the anus in Uzhgorod
Burning and itching in the anus occurs due to irritation of the skin of the anus. Itching can be persistent or intermittent, depending on the cause. There are two forms of itching: acute (anal itching appears suddenly, pronounced) and chronic (burning sensation in the anal canal increases over time, manifesting itself in full during the period of exacerbation).
Causes of anal itching can be the following:
- contact dermatitis;
- yellow sickness;
- diabetes mellitus;
- helminths;
- hemorrhoids (burning in the anus occurs due to bleeding, erosion or prolapse of hemorrhoidal tumors).
Itching in the anus at night may indicate a helminthic infection. If itching occurs, you should make an appointment with an infectious disease specialist to identify the cause and develop an individual treatment plan.
Treatment methods for burning and itching in the anus
Before starting treatment of itching in the anus, it is necessary to establish its cause. To do this, you need to be examined by a proctologist at the medical center “ON Clinic Uzhgorod”, which may include anoscopy (anoscope is inserted into the anal canal to a depth of 10 cm), rectoscopy (a sigmoidoscope is inserted into the rectum to a depth of 20 cm).
Itching after a bowel movement may indicate poor personal hygiene. Therefore, if there is a burning sensation and itching in the anus, it is necessary to do the following:
- wash with warm water in the morning, evening, after bowel movements, when itching occurs;
- avoid wearing underwear made of synthetic materials, which may irritate the skin.
It is also recommended to follow a special diet in case of anal itching. Spices, alcoholic beverages, coffee, broths, chocolate, honey, eggs, salted and smoked food should be excluded from the diet to reduce anal itching.
Since anal itching in most cases is a symptom of another disease (hemorrhoids), the treatment of burning and itching in the anus is usually not carried out without treatment of the underlying proctological disease. If the cause is hemorrhoids, then, depending on the stage, the proctologist prescribes suppositories, medications, ointments or minimally invasive procedures to remove hemorrhoids (radio wave method, laser vaporization, infrared photocoagulation, rubber band ligation of hemorrhoidal tumors). If itching is caused by skin diseases, then you need to make an appointment with a dermatologist.
