Suggest Treatment For Anal Irritation In A Child
Well, basically I am 13 years old and every day in the evening my bum just tingle's and I can't sleep.
It is really upsetting me and I get really nervous.
I do not think it is worms because I don't see them in my poo.
Please can you reply asap.
Thank you so much

Anal irritation is usually due to pinworm infestation which are not seen in stool. You should take albendazole 400mg stat dose for that.
Other cause may also b poor hygiene. so u should look for that.
