Itching

[ANIMYLE7]

Hi, could you tell me please as it is worrying me, about itching in and around the anal area, constipation and sometimes blood on the tissue after a bowel movement?

Hi it sounds as if you may have haemorrhoids (also know as piles). You can speak to your pharmacist or your GP who will be very used to helping people with this issue. You might also want to make some dietary changes to ensure that you don’t get constipated which may be what is causing the piles.
