butt itches really bad. why?!?!?!?

So last week i was in hawaii. and towards the end of the vaca, my butt started to itch. by the time i got home it was awful. not uncontrolable call in to work bad, but pretty annoying. i chalked it up to sand in the bikini, or just being in water so much for a week, and all the walking i did in the heat. its been almost a week since ive been back and its still itching. i think it may have calmed down a little. but its definately not gone. also, while i was in hawaii, i was on antibiotics for something minor. i know that sometimes antibiotics cause yeast infections, can this happen in the butt too. sometimes, if i press at it and itch a little pink shows up on the toilet paper, but just the tiniest bit. there arn't any wierd bumps or anything present, everything looks normal to me, just a little pink from being irritated, anyone ever had this happen?

Update:

everytime i lok up stuff about hemorrhoids though it mentions bleeding often.. bright red blood.. and like it said, the blood is really really tiny little drop of pink and only if i itch alot. ad if im just sitting around, not walking alot or using the bathroom, its not really itching anymore.

Update 2:

oh - one more thing.. i have reallllly senstive skin. i have a small spot on my skin that is dry and itchy too, been there for a couple months or so from shaving (totally normal for my skin). could this be the same thing?

i dont think its any kind of ticks.. seems the would have migrated a couple inches north to a more pleasant "meadow" if you get the idea.

Update 3:

oh and i'm 22 years old. rarley sexually active, bt when i am its with my wonderful bf of 3 years. so ive ruled out any kind of std.

    Put about 1/2 cup of baking soda in a tub of warm water, sit in that until the water starts to get cool, that should help.

    My wife and I went to Can Cun for the company she works for,the first night we sat in the sand,I started itching really bad.We went back to the room and I inspected my body,it was covered with hives,big ones.I showered and they grew smaller,I didn't sit near the sand for a week.I think you have a little hemorrhoidal tissue around your B.H.,If you can ,put some hemorrhoid .cream on your finger and try to push it into your B.H. just alittle.The hemorrhoid or tissue can be just inside,the fact that you are getting traces of blood tells me they may become a bigger problem if you don't have a Doctor look at you,if you feel uncomfortable with a male Doctor viewing your stuff, request a Female.I have hemorrhoids from driving truck and sometimes I'm in so much discomfort my wife has to put latex gloves on and put the cream on for me.She is really good at not embarrassing me,she is really fast.

    You may have internal hemmorriods. MIGHT NEED TO GO TO THE DR. Get some Preparation H- for hemmorriods, it should calm down the butt itch. Sorry about ur dilema. Hope this helped. Take care!

    Sure sounds like sand ticks. Not the kind that carry Lymes Disease.

    You need a lady to examine you.

    I got rid of Red bugs by using hair spray. Killed 'em dead.

    Hemmoroids, maybe. Try and over the counter remedy, with cortisone, and see if that helps.
