I finished up treatments for anal cancer 9/14/09. I have continued to have itching especially on the labia, inner and outer. In the last 2 weeks I have noticed small bumps and at one point encountered a boil. I have tried every cream known to man I think for the itching and nothing seems to help. I have continued to take Benadryl per my DR which now sometimes helps and sometimes not. I have had oral thrush since the first chemo treatment so DR has me on Clotrimazole troches and the thrush is almost gone.
Has anyone here had the itching problem? I can't go back to work because of this. It does let up for periods of time and just seems to show up whenever and continues on for 1-2 hours. It's really maddening and has just become a plain nuisance!
If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it!! Thank you. :)
