Itching Anus at Night

2025-05-14 18:06:22
My 2.5-year-old son, weighing 12.5 kg, took two deworming tablet Noworm 400 mg  14 days interval, 2 months ago. No worms were seen in his stool, but for the past few weeks he has been experiencing intense anal itching every night, which is disturbing his sleep. The anus area is cleaned daily with baby wash, and there is no redness or rash. Please advise.
