Hello. I'm 25 year old male and just recently I have developed one very delicate problem. About a month ago I started to suffer from really strong itchiness on my bottom.
You can laugh because I also did and never thought that this could represent a serious problem but believe me- I have changed my mind.
The problem is bothering me for a month and I don’t know what to do about it.
I would also like to add that this couldn’t be some sexually transmitted disease because I’m not sexually active for months now.
Please tell me- what could be the cause of my itchy bottom.

Hello. I didn’t laugh when I read your post because I know how unpleasant this really could be. I have suffered from the same problem and I remember it troubled me for months. I have even contacted my GP over this and he told me that I suffer from some condition called pruritus ani. Pruritus ani means a chronic (persistent) itchy feeling around the anus. There are several things that could cause you this condition such as inflamed anal skin, thrush and fungal infections, anal fissure, some types of food such as citrus fruits, grapes, tomatoes, spices, and drinking large amounts of beer, milk, tea, or coffee.
To avoid this try keep the anal area clean by washing after defecation, maintain a regular bowel movement and avoid highly seasoned and spiced foods.

Thumbs up for risenhoover.
Try keeping the anal area as clean as you can. I would myself suggest using a green soap bar.
Also a question. When you are calm, do you get a feeling that there's something moving down there? If this the case you may
be having some kind of parasite. They cause itching too, so that you scratch the area, and spread their eggs. If that's the case you will need medication.
