Your symptoms are suggestive of that you have pinworm infection.It is a type of parasitic infection that affects the perineal area especially anal passages.
You need to undergo physical examination and also stool examination should be done.
Mebendazole is the treatment of choice for this.You need to keep the area clean.
Hope you are happy with the answer.
