I've been having this really uncomfortable itching around my anus at night, and it's been driving me crazy because it's making me lose out on sleep. I even noticed some white worms coming from there but only at night. It's a bit concerning because I feel like I need to go to the toilet repeatedly. What could this be? Should I be worried?

I'm a bit concerned about my baby's skincare routine. Is it safe to apply baby lotion and then use Mamaearth dusting powder on their face? I'm unsure if the combination is okay for sensitive skin. What do you advise?

My baby son has been pooping 6-7 times a day but in small amounts. It was different a month ago when he would poop 2-3 times a day but in larger amounts. The poop is a bit greenish and semiliquid. He's showing no signs of discomfort unless he's hungry, hes active, and his sleep is good. Hes only breastfed, and he weighs about 8.2 kgs. Should I be worried about this change in his pooping pattern?

Thats unusual and needs evaluation,visit Pediatrician for appropriate managemnet
