### Human:\nwhat to use for dryness around outside of rectal area. can too much bile in bowel movements cause dryness around outside of rectal area?\n\n### Assistant: skin is skin. in most cases the location doesn't matter when it is treated. use a good moisturizer or even some over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream and i am sure it will help. i don't think it is from "too much bile".
