Hi, I am a new member. I have suffered from anxiety in the past, and am used to dealing with constipation and Diarrhoea caused by this. However, over the past few years I have suffered with an incredibly itchy, sore anus. I went to the Dr who prescribed some ointment and told me it was probably fungal or an allergy. The itchiness and soreness still comes and goes, but i started to suffer with loose stool. i cut out alcohol and started taking probiotics. Now I seem to be constipated for a few days, and then suffer with diarrhoeafor a day. i do not get any pain or bleeding, but i get this burning sensation in my anus and know i have to run to the toilet. I had an accident whilst out, which is making me scared to go out. Does anyone suffer with anything similar?
