Healthy anus

Many parents bring their children to see a doctor, and they are worried about whether their children have pinworms. But now that the sanitary conditions are better, anal pruritus caused by pinworm is less common. More often, anal pruritus is due to allergies, hemorrhoids, food and other reasons. This article will introduce a variety of reasons and countermeasures in anal pruritus to help you better care for your children's health.

sensitive

Most of anal pruritus's reasons are allergies. Wearing tight and airtight pants, or inappropriate materials, or even excessive cleaning may cause skin sensitivity. In addition to changing pants, try applying moisturizing lotion, or taking a warm bath (adding some iodine is better) for 5- 10 minutes each time, and the symptoms will be relieved a lot!

Hemorrhoid disease

Hemorrhoids may also make children's anus itch, especially when they are constipated, have a stomachache or have hard stools. At this time, be sure to see a doctor!

food

Some foods can also irritate the anus, such as spicy food, citrus fruits, caffeine and alcohol. Avoid these foods, and the symptoms should be alleviated.

pinworm

Enterobius does cause anal pruritus and affect sleep. The pinworm moves to the anus at night to lay eggs, so it itches particularly at night. Sometimes girls will feel uncomfortable with their genitals and even have increased secretions. If you find a bug (about 0.2- 1.3CM long) near the anus 2-3 hours after the child falls asleep, it may be pinworm infection. But this kind of situation is actually rare.

Change pants

Therefore, most children's anal itching is actually caused by sensitive skin. Try changing a pair of breathable and soft pants and applying some moisturizing lotion. If it doesn't get better, see a doctor! Don't worry, take care of your child's health together!
