    Anal dampness, this kind of condition should be a very common disease in clinical medicine. In most cases, the occurrence of anal moisture may be related to severe internal hemorrhoids or relatively large redundant external hemorrhoids. For the simple treatment of anal dampness, medication can be used first. The treatment process should usually be relieved in about a week. If it cannot be relieved, it is generally recommended to go to the hospital for treatment.

    Medical treatment of anal dampness

    1. Antihistamines

    Patients with anal wetness usually experience itching symptoms. At this time, antihistamine drugs can be chosen for treatment. If the anal wetness is caused by subacute or acute anal orifice eczema, then 5% calcium bromide or 10% sodium thiosulfate aqueous solution should be intravenously infused once a day, with a 10-day course of treatment.

    2. Antibiotic drugs

    There are many patients with anal wetness who will develop serious infections, which will have a great impact on their normal daily life. At this time, they need to be treated with antibiotics. At the same time, you should also insist on cleaning the anal opening with potassium permanganate solution, and apply erythromycin ointment externally. If there is bacterial infection, you can apply snake fat ointment or Perisone ointment, and take fluconazole capsules orally in case of infection.

    Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment for Anal Moisture

    1. Oral medicine

    In addition to taking medicine, patients with anal dampness can also take some Chinese medicinal materials orally for treatment. The more common ones are Longdan Xiegan Decoction or Siwu Xiaofeng Yin. This kind of Chinese herbal medicine has very good effects of removing dampness, eliminating itching, clearing away heat, detoxifying, removing wind, reducing inflammation and relieving pain. It is very helpful in improving the symptoms of anal dampness.

    2. Topical medicines

    In addition to oral medicines, Chinese herbal medicines can also be used for external application, such as calamine lotion. After cleaning the anus, applying calamine lotion can improve the symptoms. You can use red peony and other Chinese herbal medicines to make a potion for fumigation and bathing, which can also achieve better therapeutic effects.
