A member asked:
I have a 2 year old. and for a few weeks now he's been very itchy.waking up in the middle of the night crying and scratching but with no rash. ?

Pinworms: Where is he scratching? Anal itching can be caused by pinworms that lay eggs around the anus at night. Take a piece of clear scotch tape to his anal area, put it into a ziplock bag, and take it and your child to the pediatrician for treatment. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pinworm/basics/prevention/con-20027072
