Need guidance for pinworm issue.
I have been experiencing persistent itching and discomfort around the anal area for a long time. Although there are periods when everything feels fine, the problem keeps coming back.
Recently, I have noticed:
Difficulty sleeping due to the itching.
Worms in my stool.
Worms sticking to the skin around the anus.
I am worried about this recurring issue and would like to know the best treatment plan and any preventive measures I should follow.
Looking forward to your guidance.
Thank you!

Hello, since this has been a recurrent issue u need to be investigated. U could go for stool routine and microscopy n if need be stool culture too.
Next Steps
Is it that u consume outside food more often? How about your diet? Are you staying at a hostel or so? We need to rule out certain things here.
Health Tips
Hope the personal hygiene is being taken care of. It is better to use hot water after passing motions especially. Do take plenty of water n lots of fibre rich dietary sources too. Can help u further after the tests are performed

You need to consult with your doctor who will treat your worm infestation properly.
Next Steps
To prevent reinfection you will have to see how you got infected in the first place.
Avoid walking barefoot,
Wash all food items eaten raw thoroughly before eating.
Wash hands thoroughly before eating food and after using the toilet.
Simultaneously treat all other residents of your house to prevent reinfection.
