I have had an itchy anus before from wiping too hard and have seen some bumps but they never persisted or were intense. Recently, I noticed a HUGE external hemorrhoid larger than a pea. I can feel it as I walk, and when I sit down. I made the stupid decision to shave around that area and it made it worse. I became extremely itchy where I constantly have to reposition my underpants, and run water down there. I have tried calamine lotion which only works for an hour, a hemorrhoid cream that does not work, and hydrocortisone cream which only relieves it for short time. Please help!!!! the itching is unbearable and so much worse at night. I have work tomorrow and don’t know if i have time to see my doctor

    Hi, try essential oils, Peppermint, Frankincense, Cypress, Tea Tree, mix 2 drops of essential oil to a teaspoon of carrier oil like sweet almond oil or Jojoba Oil, do use essential oils neat they powerful stuff, you can use essential oils in combination, a ratio of 2 drops to teaspoon of carrier oil, properties of essential oils, they are antimicrobial, antibacterial, astringent, anti itching, check them out on line, I've used them and they work, just massage on the problem area.

    Get a foot stool to put your feet up on when you go to the loo. It puts you in a more natural position and helps to cure piles and prevent further problems. You can buy cheap on internet. I can’t recommend them highly enough. A real life changer. X

    Think you should go to your doctor they have seen this all before.
