What is Anal Itch?

Anal itch is a silent epidemic but much more common than some may think. Unfortunately, many physicians and patients are unaware of the condition, so people are left afraid and embarrassed to seek help from a medical professional. This results in unnecessary suffering that is incredibly debilitating. Anal itch is different from most forms of chronic itch but similar in the debilitating nature of its effects. However, like chronic itch, anal itch can last indefinitely if not treated appropriately.

There are currently no FDA-approved treatments for the epidemic of anal itch. Managing anal itch is much more complex than most physicians realize and they often do not know how to manage this condition. This is where the dedicated SootheRx team of specialists can help. Let us discretely help you from the comfort of your home in our secure and confidential clinic.
