Butthole itch
I have hsv2 for 9 years genital. Today my actual butthole is itching bad. No sign of blisters or anything. I've never had this happen ever before. Could it just be irritated from soap or something else? Or a sign of herpes?
Ok I'll read up on and and stop by the store....thank you for the knowledgeable answer !
Sounds like you have an infestation of threadworms, by the description that you wrote about noticing white thread like things in your stools.
I have copied and pasted the link below which gives more details about hygiene and cleaning things as well as saying that all members of family should be treated. The link also tells you which medication is used to treat this parasite.
The medication that is normally used to treat threadworm infections is Mebendazole This can be bought over the pharmacy without a prescription or prescribed by your doctor. This medication is available as a chewable tablet or a liquid

Wow thanks for the response! Lately I have been noticing white thread like in my stool. I will research more on how to treat it and hopefully that will make the difference thanks again for the advice!
Haemorrhoids can get aggravated and itch. This can happen from constipation as well as when having diarrhea.
Having threadworms can make the butt hole itch too, and sometimes it may a fungal infection.
When you use the toilet to empty your bowels, look in the toilet pan to see if you can see any white thread like worms. If so, these are threadworms. It is very easy to pick these up. You cannot see their eggs, but they can be transmitted on to door handles and other objects. When you then touch any contaminated objects the eggs which are invisible to the naked eye stick to your fingers. Then if you eat without washing your hands and lick your fingers, you swallow the eggs. They then travel down to the gut where the eggs hatch. The worms come out at night time to lay their eggs and this causes severe itching.
Always wash your hands after using the toilet or the urinal and always wash your hands before handling and eating foods. Wash any raw fruit before eating it.
You can purchase specific medication from the pharmacy, without a prescription, to get rid of threadworms. Make sure you follow the directions on the packet carefully.
If you notice bumps on the edge of your anus, this is likely to be haemorrhoids.
To avoid haemorrhoids, have a healthy and well balanced diet with lots of fresh fruit and veg and fibre to avoid getting constipated. Drinking lots of fluids (not alcohol) is also important so that you do not get dehydrated. This will also help with bowel movements. Exercise will also help the bowels to move, walking is a good form of exercise, but any that you do is fine.
You can also purchase suppositories that are inserted into the rectum to help with evacuation and also creams and ointments to apply to the outside of the anus to shrink down the haemorrhoids. If you are constipated, eating a healthy and well balanced diet with lots of fibre foods can help. If this does not help, you can purchase without a prescription from the pharmacy, solutions that will soften the stools that you drink with water.
If there is any bleeding or the haemorrhoids are very bothersome, make an appointment to see your doctor so that he can examine the area. He will also be able to give you advice as well as prescribe the appropriate medications for you.
Be aware that some medications can make you constipated.
Wash regularly, in the morning and before bed time using plain water, dry gently and apply the ointment or cream if you have haemorrhoids. Wear clean underpants every day. Remember to always wash your hands after using the urinal or toilet and before handling or eating any food.
Let me know how you get on.
Best wishes.
