Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum

In short: Pin worm infestation can cause itch over there.

Explanation: Pin worm infestation can cause severe itch during night over there. So, please tell your boy friend to go for stool test. Mean while he can take tablet albendazole before food at night and can be repeated after one week.
