Thanks for the feedback!
So for now, there is no need to do anything other than watch for any complaints of itching or discomfort in the anus.
In such a case, a "tape test" or flashlight test (taping the anus at night or looking with a flashlight to see if there is anything) will be required.
Sincerely
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
