&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Anal itch, also known as pruritus ani, refers to the sensation of itching around the anus and surrounding skin. This discomfort can stem from various conditions, including dermatological issues like psoriasis and contact dermatitis, as well as more serious concerns such as skin cancer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;To facilitate a quick diagnosis through the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/pulsexpress-walk-in-lab-test-without-a-doctor-fast-online-results&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PULSExpress&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; rectal swab, we will focus on sexually transmitted diseases and infections that can cause anal itch.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;For individuals who have engaged in receptive anal sex, with or without a condom, one of the earliest signs of an infection in the anal canal may include discomfort, itching, and sometimes even bleeding or discharge, particularly during bowel movements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/chlamydia&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chlamydia&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/gonorrhea&quot;&gt;gonorrhea&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; can remain &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/most-common-asymptomatic-stis&quot;&gt;asymptomatic&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; in the anal canal in about 80% of patients, as indicated by several medical studies. Anal itch is often the first noticeable sign of such an infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If left untreated, these silent infections can be transmitted to partners during sexual activity and significantly increase your risk of contracting &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/hiv#!&quot;&gt;HIV&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; by more than ten times.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Various factors can contribute to anal itch, making it crucial to rule out more easily treatable yet subtle causes, such as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/what-is-stds&quot;&gt;sexually transmitted infections&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; like Chlamydia and gonorrhea, especially if you have had receptive anal sex.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If anal itch persists and STIs have been ruled out, it&#39;s essential to consult our doctors at the PULSE Clinic for further investigation of your symptoms. As mentioned, other causes of anal itch may not be related to sexually transmitted infections, requiring a more thorough diagnosis and treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When to see a doctor&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Most anal itching doesn&#39;t require medical care. See your doctor if:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Anal itching is severe or persistent&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;You have anal bleeding or stool leakage&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The anal area seems to be infected&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;You can&#39;t figure out what&#39;s causing a persistent itch&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Persistent anal itching may be related to a skin condition or other health problem that requires medical treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Causes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Sometimes the cause of anal itching isn&#39;t identifiable. Possible causes of anal itching include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Irritants.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Fecal incontinence and long-term (chronic) diarrhea can irritate the skin. Or your skin care routine may include products or behaviors that irritate the skin, such as using harsh soaps or moist wipes and washing too aggressively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Infections.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;These include sexually transmitted infections, pinworms, and yeast infections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Skin conditions.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Sometimes anal itching is the result of a specific skin condition, such as psoriasis or contact dermatitis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Other medical conditions.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;These include diabetes, thyroid disease, hemorrhoids, anal tumors.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
