It's been going for 2 years now........on my behind -

First small red VERY ITCHY bumps, then it turned all black and now round UNCONTROLLABLE ITCHY RED patches.

Have tried all sorts of ointments, Terbinafine and Itraconozole so far......need to get back, BACK.

Please help!!!

If it's close to the anus and you've ruled out herpes virus & other infections try changing the environment in your bowel. start with something like lindens 'MAX' probiotics which contain both pre & probiotics. Lanacane is good for anal itching & contains zinc to help fungal & bacterial issues. There's also a new one with a coolant.

You must have the sores looked at by a medical professional try to get a good photo to save your sensibilities or embarrassment. Some GP.s can diagnose from this but they may need a swab & allow you to obtain that for them.

If it was me I'd brave the 2 minute exam to get a correct diagnosis.

You can also use baby nappy creams.

Make sure any meds you take are not interacting. I had terrible fungal issues & black spots just because 2 of my meds were interacting.

Good luck
