The anus is the opening at the lower end of the gastrointestinal tract through which feces get eliminated from the body. Anal itching refers to the itching at the anus and the skin surrounding the anus. Anal itching is medically called Pruritus Ani and is a common condition. Usually, anal itching gets worse at night and after the passing of stool. In some cases, there may also be burning and redness around the anal area. Scratching of the anal area may lead to cracks and raise the chances of local infection.
Anal itching can be treated successfully with homeopathic medicines. Homeopathic treatment for anal itching helps cure anal itching using medicines that are prepared from naturally occurring substances. Hence, these medicines are safe to use for people of all ages. Homeopathic medicines give long-term results by treating the underlying cause behind it. In mainstream medicine, creams, ointments, antibiotics and antifungal medicines are given as per the case. They may give relief soon, but because the cause is not addressed, the results may be temporary and itching may reappear. Additionally, these medicines can have side effects as well. Here homeopathy is a great alternative and side-effect free treatment option for anal itching that gives cure by treating the root cause behind it.

Homeopathy uses non – suppressive oral medicines that heal the internal body conditions to give permanent results.
Homeopathy fixes the root cause
Homeopathic medicines always focus on treating health issues from its roots. In anal itching cases, they initially brings down the intensity of the itching followed by treating the root cause behind it to give long term results and cure.

Causes for Anal Itching
Anal itching is a symptom not a disease, and can arise due to various reasons. It can arise simply from eating very spicy food, peppers, caffeine and chocolates, use of certain soaps or lotions and due to improper hygiene of the anal area. While in other cases, several medical conditions are linked with it. These commonly include pinworms, piles and anal fissures. Pinworms are tiny worms causing enterobiasis. Piles are dilated, enlarged, swollen, inflamed veins in or around the anus or in the lower rectum. Anal fissures refer to a tear / cut in the anus. The other causes include anal fistula and genital warts. Anal fistula is a small tunnel having an internal opening in the anal canal and an external opening in the skin that surrounds the anus. Genital warts are caused by sexually transmitted infection caused by Human papilloma virus causing warts on genitals or anus.
Yeast infection is another reason for anal itching. Diabetes mellitus predisposes a person to yeast infection. Continuous moisture around the anus from sweat or loose stool is another reason for anal itching. Other causes of anal itching include skin tags; taking strong antibiotics; use of some ointments around the anus; skin problems like eczema (chronic skin condition causing inflamed, itchy skin). In some cases, there is no particular cause for anal itching. This condition is called Idiopathic Pruritus Ani.
