Is nighttime restlessness stealing your child’s sleep?
Many parents often mistake a child’s sudden, intense scratching or sleeplessness at night for a bad dream or just summer heat. However, a very common and overlooked culprit is Intestinal Worms (specifically Pinworms).
These tiny parasites become most active during the night, causing severe perianal itching, discomfort, and disrupted sleep. This not only affects your child's mood but can also impact their growth and immune system.
