Could also be inadequate cleaning after bowel movements -- it can be hard to clean properly when you have frequent and/or soft/liquid movements. I obtained an Olympia Shower Bidet here: http://www.hygieneforhealth.com/ and use it to rinse off before patting the area dry, instead of rubbing with toilet tissue. Not only did in result in better cleaning, my anus doesn't get as sore if I happen to be having a flare. They have two models, one cold water only and one which allows mixing of hot and cold water. They also have many other, more expensive bidets, but this one was in my price range. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Babette the Foundling Beagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
