No fever, are any of that though, First i thought i had a brain tumor, then lukemiah, and then tons of other things. I think i stressed myselve out from worrying so much can stress and anxiety cause this?

Answer 1

Itching and burning after a bowel movement is often a sign of hemorrhoids. However, with all your other complaints, I suggest you make an appointment for a complete physical just to be sure that there isn't an underlying medical condition.

Please note though that anxiety can cause almost any symptom you can imagine. A visit to your doctor is definitely in order.
