Hello,

It is rare to have worms in this age, first, go for a stool test. Nose rubbing is normal in babies, and maybe, he is having teeth, and feels irritation, and wants to put everything in the mouth.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Hina Javed
