i recently felt really itchy around my "area" at night. after a while i couldn't take it any more so i looked and found 3 pinworms (or so I'm guessing they are?). i told my parents i felt itchy there but i didn't tell them about the worms.

but the weird thing is i fell itchy in the day time too and I'm not sure if this is common. i also haven't noticed any in my stools either.

but I'm only on the second day of having them and i feel petrified. i think i over researched about them and the stuff said made me feel even worse! what should I do?

    Hi. Itchy bottom can be symptom of allergy. Check your IgE (Immunoglobulin E) analysis result. I thought that I have threadwroms for years, but it turned out to be allergy for feces or slime from intestines(also I have never seen any worms in my feces), also I can use toilet paper to make itch gone. Now I do exercises to strengthen the anus, so there will be less feces and slime on my bottom. Also my eosinophils analyse was ok
