recently i have developed several cuts on my anus. they lok like splits in the skin, something like a razor would do. they are extreemly uncomfortable, burning and itching like mad.
It's possible, but I'd get a doctor to look at it anyway. If it's something else, it should be diagnosed and treated. If it's herpes, you might need to use an antiviral cream or other healing ointment to help the healing. It's a difficult area to heal sores because the skin is constantly being stretched and pushed around. I've had an OB around the anus and it felt like hemmoroids with swelling, but one thing about herpes is that it can look and feel different on each person.
I am actually suffering from the EXACT same thing you are and I'm wondering if its related to my genital herpes too. I was just diagnosed a month ago though and when I was diagnosed it didn't even dawn on me to ask my doctor about the cuts around my anus. From what I've read online, these little cuts are anal fissures and they can be related to genital herpes. How you go about curing them though, I have no idea. I'm actually going to the doctor this afternoon and I'll post back whatever helpful information that I get.
yeah, def let me know what the doc thinks their from. theyre so damn annoying. i just bought some ointment, anusol i believe its called. supposed to stop itching and heal. ill let you know how that works out.
I would think any kind of ointment that contains zinc, camphor, or other wound-healing ingredients, would be helpful, although if the virus is continually reactivating and irritating the area it might not help much. I've found Mecca or Ozonol ointments helpful in healing sores after the virus has done the deed and disappeared.
