Could Grade 1-2 Hemorrhoids Cause Chronic Anal Itching?

Dear Doctor, Could a one-time irritation of previously asymptomatic internal hemorrhoids of grade 1 or 2 cause anal itching that would appear only 5 weeks after the irritation and develop into chronic itching persisting for several years? This concerns a 25-year-old young person. Is there any direct or indirect mechanism for this, or is it impossible? Thank you for your response, and I wish you all the best.

 In cases of non-recurrent, minor (grade 1 or 2) internal hemorrhoids it is quite likely that a protruding vein may cause an itch that will appear a few weeks later and will become chronic over time. This may happen due to irritation and skin sensitivity around the region. Itchy hemorrhoids can be effectively relieved by dipping over-the-counter topical creams and gels specifically made for hemorrhoid use. Also, practice good hygiene and think about making some dietary adjustments to avoid constipation.

Typhoid hota rahta h bar bar jata nhi hai

Female | 25

Typhoid is a serious dise­ase, not like regular illne­sses. It stems from bacteria e­ntering through contaminated water or food. Symptoms include­ fever, tummy aches, and we­akness. But don't worry, antibiotics treat it e­ffectively. Be mindful to consume­ clean water and food.

You are experiencing pain near the navel, are experiencing gases, and regularly urinate at night. They might be symptoms of a urinary tract infection or a prostate condition. Drinking enough water and eating a diet rich in fibers can help with the gas build-up. To effectively handle such symptoms, visit a doctor for diagnosis and treatments.

You must see a doctor immediately to determine your symptoms' cause. It could be anything from a stomach virus to a foodborne illness to a more serious condition. Your doctor can run tests to determine the cause and provide the appropriate treatment. In the meantime, it is important to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids and avoiding foods that could worsen your symptoms.

I am having itching in my butthole i dont know why i am having it .

Male | 17

Itchiness in the anus can be annoying, and it can be because of many different factors. At times, it can happen because of not cleaning properly after using the toilet. Moreover, conditions such as piles, skin, agitations could be the culprits. Use mild, unscented wipes or a soothing cream to decrease the itching. In case there are no improvements, make a point to visit a healthcare provider.
