pinworms

Pinworms are a common problem in young children. The symptoms are an itchy bottom, and you can often see the pinworms when you look at it. And the treatment is usually a single dose of a particular medication, which your pharmacist can advise you on or your GP.

If you’re not sure that it’s pinworms, you really do need to check in with your GP.
