I sit down most of the day. I do walk a fair bit when I go to the city, but most of the time I am either on the PC or on the sofa watching TV. I know I have piles, but it has got a bit worse. I am getting a clear weeping between my a**e cheeks. It make it itch and I try not to scratch it.

I use baby wipes after having a poo, and that seems to relieve it for a while. But I am getting marks on my jocks, and a mark on the sheets. I find that first thin in the morning it tends to be a bit less itchy, but it soon comes back.

I am REALLY embaressed to go to the doc, so any ideas what it is, how I can clear it up?

I would say it is this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilonidal_sinus
But see a doc. And if it is this, don't let it fester - it can be Very sore.

Goto doctor, do not pass Go. This is not a medical forum.
