Most likely worm infestation (pinworms) causing itching, with secondary infection leading to boil.
Give Albendazole 400 mg single dose, repeat after 2 weeks (all family members). Maintain hygiene (nail cutting, hand wash).
For itching: apply Calamine lotion.
For boil: warm compress + Mupirocin.
If fever, pain, or increasing boil → oral antibiotics only after pediatrician advice.
