No

It should be pruritus ani. The treatment mainly involves paying attention to a regular lifestyle, reducing the intake of tobacco, alcohol, and spicy foods, quitting the habit of scratching, avoiding various external stimuli, maintaining local cleanliness and dryness, and avoiding the use of soaps with excessive alkali or hot water for bathing. Local topical solutions and ointments, as well as physical therapy, can also be applied.
