I'm experiencing some discomfort with itching and occasionally a burning sensation after I pass stool, which lasts for a few hours before it settles down. But the itching tends to come and go. I've been using Betadine cream on my anus, and it seems to provide some relief. Is it safe for me to keep doing this, or should I be considering something else? Could you provide some guidance on this?

I've been dealing with some tough acidity and gas issues lately. I usually take a Topcid 40 tablet when this flares up, but I'm not sure if it's the right move. Is it safe and effective for what I'm experiencing? Also, are there any tips you could give me to help avoid these problems in the future? And one more thing - between Topcid and Digene, which one is actually better for stuff like acidity or gas?
