I've been experiencing some itching around my anal area, and I'm not sure what's causing it. It's really uncomfortable, and I'd love to know what might be happening and how I can make it stop. Can you help me figure out what's going on and how to treat it?

My mom is 51 and has been dealing with acidity issues. Her recent endoscopy showed bile reflux. Can this be treated with medications or does she need surgery?
