Irritation and Discomfort in Anal Area - #51212
I am a male of 70 years. There is irritation, bulkiness and uncomfort in the anal area for the last two months. No blood is coming. I tried physillium husk and also soaked gond katira but got no relief. Doctor was consuted but he said there are no heammorids. He advised only to take laxatives.

Doctors' responses
—This is likely due to skin irritation or minor changes around the anus. Keep the area clean and dry, take warm sitz baths, and use mild barrier creams if needed. Continue your high-fiber diet and use laxatives only if needed –Treatment: 1)Sitz bath: Warm water 10–15 min, 2× daily 2)Local application: jatayadi taila after bath —Oral medicine: Triphala Churna 5 g at bedtime with warm water –Diet: High-fiber, plenty of water, avoid spicy/oily foods –Lifestyle: Gentle walking, avoid prolonged sitting, keep area clean & dry –Follow-up: 2 weeks or if bleeding/lumps occur
Thanks for your reply. Someone has advised me to take half spoon of mulethi powder and a spoon of physillium husk dissoved in water for 20 days at bedtime. Can it help?
