Yes this infection usually causes itching around the anus, especially at night. This is caused by ingesting pinworm eggs, which can be found on contaminated surfaces, such as bedding, clothing, or hands. Weight loss, irritability, and trouble sleeping.are its symptoms. However it is best to consult a gastroenterologist to know the exact reason and get treatment accordingly.
