The best medicine for pinworms has to be prescribed by a Dr. Usually the whole family needs to be treated, so really you need to tell your parents. It's a common childhood ailment, just "buck up" and tell them...because I know you want to get better.

See this link for good info:

You need to tell your mom and get to a doctor. Pin worms are contagious. Won't be fun if the entire family catches them! :)

and i didnt go to the doctors or even the school nurse for 2 weeks because i figured it would go away. then i went to the school nurse..just for a band-aid to cover it up and the school nurse made me leave school and go to the doctors. i couldnt come back to school without a doctors note saying its being treated because it was highly contagious. so pinworms may be the same deal. its probably very contagious but it wont really harm you the only thing that can happen is it will spread and be worse. so go to the doctors immediatley

Wow, you should really go to the doctors as soon as you can. And no you can`t treat this without a doctor. I googled it and found out alot of information. Tell your parents because they can get it. =/ here`s the site:

The doctor can also prescribe medicine so it will go away.
