Man, I think I may have one. The bung hole is really itchy. It was last night too. It's not a case of the mud butt. It might not be a hemmoriod but my anus is very itchy for some reason. Any ideas?

Use some personal wipes.
It's make you feel like a new woman.

Pinworms
(Enterobius vermicularis, Oxyuris spp.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is estimated that pinworms infect more than 400,000,000 people throughout the world (10% of humans), and in many areas of the world (e.g., North America and Europe) it is the most common nematode parasite of humans. On a world-wide basis, however, Ascaris lumbricoides ranks #1 infecting more than 1,000,000,000 people (25% of humans).
Adult pinworms live in the large intestines; males and females are about 5 mm and 10 mm long, respectively. After copulation the males die. When the female is ready to lay eggs she crawls out of the anus and deposits the eggs on the perianal skin; a single female can produce more than 10,000 eggs. After laying her eggs, the female also dies. At body temperature the eggs develop quickly and are infective (contain 3rd stage juvenile worms) in about six hours. When ingested by another person the eggs hatch in the small intestine, and the juvenile worms grow into adult, sexually mature worms in about a month (view diagram of the life cycle).
Pinworms infections can be asymptomatic or result in mild gastrointestinal upsets. A common symptom associated with pinworm infections is perianal itching. Scratching of the perianal skin to relieve the itching can lead to bacterial infections that result in more itching, etc. This cycle can result in a situation where the infected person becomes very uncomfortable. Children infected with pinworms often undergo behavioral changes, including restlessness, irritability, and insomnia. In women, the adult pinworms can enter the vagina and cause additional irritation.
Pinworms are highly contagious! The eggs are infective within a few hours of being laid, and they are deposited directly on the perianal skin. Bed linens, clothing, carpets, etc., can be contaminated with eggs. The infected person's hands will, invariable, be contaminated with eggs, providing a route for reinfection and egg dispersal (even into the classroom). It is for this reason that if one member of a family is infected for pinworms, the whole family is treated.
There is evidence that Dientamoeba fragilis, a "protozoan parasite" of humans, is transmitted among humans in the eggs of pinworms. Thus, pinworm and Dientamoeba infections may occur simultaneously.
Pinworm infections are detected by finding the eggs or worms on the perianal skin. If the perianal skin is examined using a flashlight the worms can be seen; they literally "glow" under the bright light. (Click here for an image of pinworms on the perianal skin. Warning, this is not a particularly pleasant image.) Because the female pinworms lay their eggs during the early morning hours, it is the child's parent who must examine the perianal skin for the worms. Understandably, finding pinworms on your child's perianal skin is not something a parent soon forgets. Eggs on the perianal skin can be detected by using a piece of cellophane ("Scotch") tape attached to a wooden applicator stick, sticky side out. The tape is then pressed against the perianal skin and later examined for eggs. This is best done as soon as a child awakens, so this responsibility also falls on the child's parents.
Don't believe everything you think.
I'm pretty sure it's not pinworms, I chew Copenhagen and usually ingest the juice. That's supposed to kill worms isn't it?
one day
and you're sure its not mud butt?
cuz a roid is more than just itchy. It's like a grape that wont pass camping out at the exit sign.
Yep. It was clean as a whistle when I got out of the shower last night and it started itching. I got out of bed, sat on the throne and checked for mud but. The TP was clean after the check. I even used wet TP to check.

Uh, no thanks.(Click here for an image of pinworms on the perianal skin. Warning, this is not a particularly pleasant image.)
Sometimes I think I drink alot, then I see, like, the Motley Crüe behind the music, and realize I'm a huge *****.
Surely one of the Dallas folks could help you out. I bet they own flashlights.....
I'da prolly checked WebMD before the SO. Just sayin'.........
Well, Howzit does like it when I call him Pops...Surely one of the Dallas folks could help you out. I bet they own flashlights.....

I'm not even sure where to begin with this thread.
I guess, I wouldn't necessarily assume itchy butt is a hemorrhoid. If there's no pain and no blood, it could just be a rash. Have you been wearing wet diapers recently?
I'd watch it (not literally) and see how the symptoms go.
Well, it's really for a friend anyways but I thought I'd just say that I had an itchy bobo

Yeah, ok. That would be worse, you asking for a friend about his butthole.Well, it's really for a friend anyways but I thought I'd just say that I had an itchy bobo

OK guys. CVS has the problem but was too embarrassed to ask about it.

Isn't "Itchy Bobo" the Asian guy that plays the violin?
I can safely say that in this instance, CVS is speaking for all of us.
