Rectal Itching: Causes, Relief & Potential Solutions


Question
I am a 55 year old female who has developed rectal itching over the last few months. How can I determine the cause and what can I do to relieve this embarassing problem?

Answer
You can eliminate all gluten, flax and soy to see if they are causing it or you can use topical olive oil after baths and showers to the genital anal area to clear it is a few days then use as maintenance.
In most of my patients it comes from hygiene products and soaps drying an area designed to be oily so the olive oil is a perfect fix for most
