Thank you for visiting my Pruritus ani site! Before you go any further, I wanted to share the
extremely kind words of a recent customer:
Dear Dr. Black,
I suffered from rectal itching for five years.
It started like a little itching sensation around the anus.
I used to scratch it for a while and it disappeared.
I had also tried to wash my anus harder, but it only became worst.
The itching was horrible. I felt pain and burning after each bowel movement.
After I had discovered blood on toilet wipes, i decided to visit a doctor.
My doctor did not help me at all. He prescribed me cream against hemorrhoids. It allayed irritation for a few days, then rectal itching came again.
In the next four years, I tried every single ointment for hemorrhoids and rectal itching. Without effect. Fortunately, I found your site and ordered your miraculous oak bark cream. My rectal itching gone after two weeks and my horrible life episode came to the end.
Thanks for your awesome cream and advice.
