So S has been constantly picking at his behind. Every 30 seconds or so. A while back he was doing the same thing and I took him to the dr for it and he had strep back there. So when this started I took him in assuming it was the same thing. It isn't. The dr said try itch cream for a few weeks that didn't help, so then I was thinking since he's constipated a lot, maybe hemmeroids? S says it feels like his undies are stuck in there. So I called and asked and if I could try tucks pads or some of the ointment, that hasn't been helping either.
We've tried all types of undies, boxers, boxer briefs, regular, the kind that have an elastic cuff around the thighs to keep them in place, bigger ones, smaller ones, etc. Nothing is helping. For the record I KNOW the undies aren't actually stuck because I've seen him in just undies and when he picks there is nothing in there.
He had a vyvanse increase around the same time this started, this maybe started a week or so after that. On Focalin he had a motor tick with his eyes, I know this is different but he doesn't even seem to notice. I'm starting to wonder if the increased medications are causing a tick/stimulant type behavior? I know that's probably far reaching but with itch cream, antibiotic cream, hemmeroid cream all not working I'm running out of ideas.
Its not pin worms because its all day and his dr said that would be only at night, he says it doesn't itch or hurt, just that his undies are stuck.....even though the symptoms aren't consistent with-pin worms if it hasn't stopped by the end of next week we're to take him back to be tested for them. Thoughts? Suggestions?
