You mentioned:
You’re experiencing anal itching every night, recently moved to a new city, and want to know what medicine might help best.
Medical explanation:
Night-time anal itching, especially in a young adult, can be due to enterobiasis (a pinworm infection), which is quite common and often underdiagnosed. The gravid female pinworms migrate to the perianal area at night to lay eggs, causing intense itching. This infection spreads through microscopic eggs via hand-to-mouth transmission after scratching.
Common features:
Anal itching, especially at night
Mild symptoms without systemic signs
Often no visible worms
Treatment options:
For medicine u need to contact
Treat all household contacts even if they are asymptomatic, to prevent reinfection.
Maintain strict hygiene: wash hands, trim fingernails, avoid scratching, and wash bedding in hot water.
If no improvement occurs, consider other causes like fungal infection, dermatitis, or hemorrhoids. In that case, a local doctor visit will help confirm diagnosis.
