Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic forum
I would consider it to be worm infestation if its around the anal region only , since its in the pubic region its more likely to be louse infestation , for which i suggest you to shave your pubic hair and observe. If the problems get solved then for sure its louse causing the itching.
