[|AI|]  Welcome to the ChatDoctorIt seems that your child has worm infestation most likely due to pin worms along with allergic episode. Stool examination many a time is not sufficient to rule out these infestations. To detect pin worms, you need to apply a piece of cello tape in perianal area of your kid at night. Remove it and get it examined under microscope by your pediatrician the next day for sticking eggs or pin worm. To treat it completely I recommend my patients to take Albendazole (400 mg) on day 1 and 15. This should be along with trimming nails and good handwashing and hygiene. For allergic reaction, you may give your son Spy. Ben Chat Doctor.  Apply lac to- calamine lotion on the skin lesions. It will reduce itching and redness. Hopefully this will help you. I would be glad to help you in any further questions. Take care
