Sore Bum :s
This is a real question...but kinda rude.
Hi. I'm a 20 year old guy and for about the last 8 weeks my bum has been really really itchy. Not my cheeks...around my actual hole. And now the same area just feels painful and I can't see it but it feels red (if that makes sense)...like its burning. Actually...it feels kinda like sunburn. Does anyone know what this is...should I put something on it coz I don't really wanna go the docs coz I dont really want him looking there :s

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.sounds like you either have a thrush infection which can be made worse by itching... sometimes it can be caused by a heavy night on the beer or curry, major ring sting next day, bit of tearing.. you get my drift. Anyway, I'd try using something like canestan - you can get it from the chemist for 7 days. It'll calm the itching at any rate (incidently incase you are wondering how I know, I'm a doctor with a hectic social life!)
