I am having acupuncture and considering colonic irrigation. But now I've read two accounts that say it could be the washing. So I've stopped using soap from today, and am using a 0. I'll try that for a couple of days. If it doesn't work I'll try. So thanks so much for posting. If I hadn't read this it would have been hard to believe that this sensation could be caused by anything other than worms! Posted 6 months ago. I got worms about a month ago and have taken so much Ovex that i really dont undestand how I can have any worms left!
I havent seen any sign of them for about 2 weeks now- despite checking poo and my hands are bleeding from constant washing. I can feel the wriggling sensation at times during day and sporadically from 5pm onwards.
Can that weird feeling really not be worms?! I sincerely hope so! Thank you again. Posted 3 months ago.
Itchy bottom can be symptom of allergy. Check your IgE Immunoglobulin E analysis result. I thought that I have threadwroms for years, but it turned out to be allergy. I thought that I have threadwroms for years, but it turned out to be allergy for feces or slime from intestines also I have never seen any worms in my feces , also I can use toilet paper to make itch gone.
Now I do exercises to strengthen the anus, so there will be less feces and slime on my bottom. Also my eosinophils analyse was ok. Join this discussion or start a new one?

I thought I had persistent threadworms, but… Follow. I thought I had persistent threadworms, but… I want to share my story, because I think there is a chance other people are suffering from the same problem I had.
We immediately: a stopped taking the mebendazole b stopped showering twice a day, and stopped washing all our clothes and bedding as often c stopped washing and scrubbing ourselves so thoroughly in the shower It took a couple of days for the tickling sensation to go away, but it did.
Looking back, I feel a bit silly that I didn't realise before. The warning signs were: a feeling the tickling during the day, not just at night b not being able to find definitive evidence of worms with the tape test, nor any other methods c the fact that I was feeling the tickling and my boyfriend wasn't, even though we live together.
New discussion Reply. I probably should have made my post shorter, haha. Been reading so many scare stories and after two weeks I was convinced that mine had come back-despite taking the medicine again and washing so thouroughly its ridiculous. I now think that it might just be itchiness from overwashing as there is no evidence of worms so far that I can tell!
It makes me really happy to hear that it might have helped! Would love to hear from you again in a week or two to confirm whether it went away for you. I am so glad I found this thread right now! I'm having the same experience. I hope the excessive washing is the problem. If it doesn't work I'll try Canestan. BTW I've been taking a good pre and probiotic throughout.
