What is the reason for the wet butt crack

A wet butt crack may be caused by inadequate cleaning or hemorrhoids. Polyps cannot be ruled out. Patients with kidney deficiency may also have a wet butt crack.

1. Inadequate cleaning: If the area is not cleaned properly, it may cause moisture and symptoms such as itching, which can be relieved by washing with warm water.

2. Hemorrhoids: Sitting for a long time or frequently eating irritating foods may also cause hemorrhoids. When the symptoms are mild, they can be relieved by potassium permanganate sitz bath, or by adjusting the diet and eating more light and easily digestible foods. When the symptoms are more severe, they can be treated with surgical removal.

3. Polyps: Long-term unreasonable work and rest schedule or unreasonable diet may lead to local inflammation and infection. When the symptoms worsen, polyps will appear. You need to take levofloxacin and other anti-inflammatory drugs as prescribed by the doctor. If the medication treatment is not ideal, surgical removal can be performed.

The butt crack is a relatively private area, so it is usually necessary to keep the area clean and dry. Appropriate activities should be done to promote metabolism and blood circulation in the body. Avoid sitting for long periods of time, eat more light and easily digestible food, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, avoid eating irritating or cold foods, such as peppers or garlic, and do not drink strong coffee frequently. Quit smoking and drinking.
