Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello dear!
I would recommend to make sure he has a face mask whenever he is with babysitter or in daycare to prevent repeated infections.
Give him benadryl 4ml twice daily for 1 week along with Ivy leaves extract commercially available with the name coferb plus/no kuff or prospan.
i will also recommend some home remedies like 1 teaspoon of honey in a cup of luke warm water daily along with steam inhalation.
Regarding anal itching,i would say its a sign of worm infestation.You have to take very good care of your baby's hygiene.
Give him syp. vermox 5ml twice a day for 3 days for deworming.
give him boiled and cleaned water ,wash hands before eating anything and especially cut his nails whenever long and dirty.
I hope it will help.
Be blessed :-)
