Frequently asked questions
How can I determine if my child has a worm infection?
If your child complains of an itchy bottom (rectal area), difficulty sitting, fatigue, and restless sleep due to anal itching or persistent stomach pain with loss of appetite or frequent indigestion, it might indicate a worm infestation. Other signs include pica, where your child may eat inedible substances like mud. Promptly contact your child's doctor if you notice any of these symptoms. The doctor may request stool and blood samples from your child on three different days for examination. Depending on the test results, the doctor will determine the treatment plan and prescribe appropriate medication.
How can my child be infected with intestinal worms?
Children are most susceptible to worm infections. Transmission occurs when human feces containing worm eggs contaminates soil in areas with poor sanitation. Drinking contaminated water or consuming contaminated fruits and vegetables without washing or peeling can also lead to infection. Your child might also get infected by playing in soil contaminated with worm eggs. Ensure your child washes their hands thoroughly after returning home from outdoor activities.
