When I've wiped myself raw what I do is get the toilet paper wet with cool water and then daub my ass with it, instead of wiping. Far less abrasive and the cool water is soothing as much as it helps to clean.
Maybe consider taking a fiber supplement. It'll help your stools bind together so that you will need less wiping in general.
Also consider getting some kind of ointment, take a shower before bed, and slather the ointment on your anus. Moist skin stretches. Dry skin tears.
Psyllium husk powder. Mix about a tablespoon into a tall glass of water, mix the ever-loving hell out of it, and drink the sludge that it turns into. Do that once a day, and you'll barely need TP. It's horrifying and it tastes like rancid applesauce runoff, but it's a good solution (pun not intended) to the "wiping the tip of a brown Sharpie" problem.
That's the same stuff I use! It's changed my life. It helps me navigate my IBS. It's a lifesaver when I travel and I have to eat at restaurants and I don't nearly get enough dietary fiber from restaurant food.

oh yeah the prep H should help, but I use just a neosporin-like jelly for the night time butt moisturizing, it has no medicated "tingle"
