Intestinal worms live in the lower part of the large intestine and generally children are most affected. To avoid infection, we must take timely action and take extreme hygiene measures.
But how do they reproduce? Females work at night and lay tiny eggs around the anus. In the event of an infection, it is important that everyone undergo preventive treatment at home and take measures, as infection occurs simply by touching bedding, food or objects.
As long as the eggs are present, the infection will not go away. Because they can survive outside the body for up to 2 weeks. This means that the same person can become infected because they are in different parts of the body and the infection breaks out again when they put their hands in their mouth.
Unfortunately, many infections are asymptomatic. In particular, the affected person suffers from itching in the anus area, which usually worsens at night. Watch these symptoms:
- Loss of appetite.
- Flatulence.
- Headaches, nausea and dizziness.
- Weakness.
- Yellowish face.
- Grinding of teeth, especially when sleeping.
- constipation or diarrhea.
- Intimate infections.
Once the doctor prescribes the appropriate treatment, the worms will disappear in about 15 days. Even if there are no worms present, the eggs persist.
Therefore, it is recommended to repeat the treatment two weeks later as the chance of reinfection is very high. Consider the following:
- You must trim your nails and be extremely careful about hand hygiene.
- Wash the affected person’s clothing with hot water and clean the home with a disinfectant.
- Daily bathing is essential, especially in the anus area.
- Avoid putting your hands in your mouth.
- If there is an infected person in the family, it is important that everyone receives treatment to prevent reinfection.
