We all know how embarrassing that itchy bum moment could be. Generally people will cope with this itching condition but if it is going to last for a lifetime it becomes a hugely embarrassing condition as you have no choice but to keep scratching away at your bottom which is not at all a pleasant sight not only for you but for all the people who accompany you. In this article we are going to discuss about some of the common symptoms of anal itching, its causes and how people can get instant relief from anal itching through use of home based remedies.

If you are experiencing itchiness in your anal area do not worry because although it is an embarrassing condition but it is not a very serious health concern. It has been noted that rectal itching is at its worst during night. One major reason of anal itching is poor hygiene hence to prevent itchiness the anus has to be kept clean and free from bacteria. The skin around the anus is crinkly in nature and has faeces trapped in it which have to be cleaned away. Our bottom part can also sometimes become quite airless and sweaty due to the kind of clothes we wear sometimes thus creating conducive environment for bacteria to thrive and cause itchiness in the anal area.

One thing that aggravates this condition is scratching which is a normal reaction of the body to experience some relief but scratching only provides momentarily relief but it can worsen the condition if a person continues to scratch away and this habit is highly unhygienic in nature.

There are plenty of treatment options available but be careful before you select one. There are some creams which can slime up the area more thus causing more problems. Some homeopathic products like rectorex balm and anal itch assist have been found to be very effective in treatment of anal itching.

Anal itching sufferers should also avoid using scented toilet paper and soaps as most of them contain alcohol and other chemicals which are harmful for the anal skin area and wear cotton underwear as it is breathable and a natural fiber. People who wear synthetic clothes are more prone to rashes and irritation in the skin because such clothing materials make it difficult for the skin to breathe normally thus giving birth to skin problems.

So anal itching is a condition which could be easily treated provided you use the right treatment options and maintain good hygiene levels and occasionally take help of  remedies like rectorex balm if the problem is starting to occur.
