Hi, I didn't find an appropriate topic
listing so I put it in here if that's ok.
Does anyone find that after they go to the
toilet and wipe their bum too much it
gets itchy a while later. I don't know if
it's a psychological thing but i'm not
sure that it's worms, it probably is...

I don't believe that is normal and you
should really see your doctor about this.
That could possibly be hemmroids. Btu
def get it looked at.

Could Be Worms Posted: 10-23-06 04:07am
Hi, I feel for you. Itchy bottom is quite
common. It could be thread worm. Here in
the uk all you do is take one tablet and
if you feel ok about asking your family to
take one, they could do with taking it as
well. It is very contagious and mainly
passed on by children. At school etc,
with all that contact, it is very easy to
pass on. If your bottom is more itchy at
night, this could what it is. Rather
embarrisingly though, you may want to get
someone to have a look up there. Not sure
how old u are but if you have a
husband/wife im sure they wouldnt mind.
So there you go, it could be threadworm.
Nothing scary about it, the ablet just
kills it off inside.
