A member asked:

My 5 yr old is complaining that it hurts inside her bottom when she neds a poo and she is itching her bum like crazy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pinworms: She could have an irritation from contact with something- new soap, new toilet paper, etc. But, the most likely thing is pinworms. Pinworms are tiny little parasites which cause irritation to the anal area, with extreme itching. Call your doctor for appropriate medication.
