Is persistent burning in the anus bowel cancer?

Persistent hot and spicy anus may be the result of eating too much spicy food, perianal infection, etc. It is not necessarily bowel cancer.
1. Diet: if you eat too much spicy food, such as chili, hot pot, barbecue, etc., then defecation may cause discomfort, burning and tingling sensation in gastrointestinal tract and anus area, this situation generally does not need special treatment, keep diet light and drink more water.
2. Perianal infection: if there is trauma or anal fissure in the perianal area, and it is infected or suppurated, due to the inflammation factor, it will also cause burning and hot feeling in the anal area, which needs anti-infection treatment or surgical treatment.
3. Bowel cancer: Bowel cancer may cause changes in bowel habit, such as increased frequency of bowel movement, thinning of feces, blood in the stool and so on, which may cause burning and hot sensation in the anus, which can be excluded through colonoscopy.
If you have persistent discomfort in the anus and symptoms such as hot and spicy, it is recommended to go to the hospital to get a clear diagnosis.
