How to deal with itchy buttocks for children? Why does it itch?

Patient's question:

Approximately 15 days later, the child said his buttocks itched. I gave him a saltwater sit bath, but it only lasted for a short while.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, anal itching may also be caused by factors such as perianal eczema, perianal skin allergies, etc. It could be anal eczema or intestinal ascariasis. If your child is over 3 years old, you can give them a deworming treatment and also apply an external ointment daily to the anal area, such as Pristynol or Terzolin.
