Anyone and suggestions before I go off my head here!

Dd has been awake all night pulling and scratching at her vulva, I have tried everything from 7 o clock this evening, a bath, sudocrem, canestan, antihistamine, calpol, nothing is helping, what the fuck do I do?

She is crying and rubbing at herself all night.
I am bloody knackered. HELP.

Maybe a damp cloth/sponge?

Cold water? Cold hot water bottle?
Oats in the bath in a knotted pair of tights
I can't remember if it's bicarbonate of soda in the bath for thrush/cystitis

Well, went to GP this morning who gave me canestan HC, however dd had loose stools this evening and i discovered the poor child had threadworms, loads. Sad

Got medicine from late night chemist, hope it works soon as dd is in agony, crying & can't sleep, just awful.

Oh no the poor thing. I didn't even think of this one. From memory as a child the treatment works very fast.
