For the past few months I have been having intense itchiness and cuts that appear on my perineum! I was treated for yeast infection twice but the problem still persists! I don't know what to do. Sometimes I think there is a cut on my anus because it bleeds and my pooping hurts! I attached a picture of the cuts

image Pls help!!!

    its hard to tell what type of skin issue you have. a derm can take a biopsy a skin sample and tell you exactly what it is....

    Have you tried oral supplements? Perhaps probiotics? Do you take any vitamins? Green tea?
