I'm really worried about my husband. He's been feeling this weird stickiness around his anus for the past few months and he's also mentioning some light pain around his abdomen that just seems to move around. It's really affecting his mood and he's getting pretty down about it. Are there any home remedies or tips you could suggest for some quick relief?
