POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy9 months agoA. Itching around the anus in children is often caused by a pinworm infection, which is common and can recur if not fully eradicated. The medicine you are giving every 15 days may be helping temporarily, but reinfection could be the issue. To manage this, ensure strict hygiene practices. Wash his hands thoroughly, especially after using the toilet and before eating. Keep his nails trimmed to prevent scratching and spreading the eggs. Wash his bedding, clothes, and towels regularly in hot water. Encourage him to wear snug-fitting underwear and change it daily. Vacuum and clean the home frequently to reduce environmental contamination. Treat all family members if advised by the doctor, as pinworms can spread easily. If the problem persists despite these measures, consult your pediatrician for further evaluation and possibly a different treatment regimen.
