Why are only children with roundworms in their stomachs, but adults not

Adults and children have it, and if you find that you have a day shift on your face, it means that you have roundworms in your stomach, go buy some deworming medicine.

The child is still young, he doesn't know how to do a good job of personal hygiene, he grabs everything he sees, and sends it to his mouth, and the child's own resistance is not as strong as that of adults.

Because people's eating habits and hygiene habits have changed greatly as before, they will not eat food with insects.

Adult worms live in the small intestine and are more common in the jejunum, feeding on semi-digested food. After the female and male adults mate, the female lays eggs, the eggs are excreted with the feces, polluting the environment, the fertilized eggs are shaded, moist, oxygen is sufficient and the appropriate temperature (21 30), after 2 weeks, the egg cells in it develop into the first stage larvae, and then after one week, the eggs develop into infected eggs after the first molt.

In the past, the reason why people had roundworms in their stomachs was because they ate food with roundworm eggs, but with the improvement of food safety and hygiene, it is difficult for people to eat food with roundworm eggs, so now most people do not have roundworms in their stomachs. I hope this answer helps.

This is the food that people ingest nowadays, and there are fewer and fewer toxic and harmful things. Living conditions have improved, and people's dietary hygiene habits are getting better and better. Many foods are washed repeatedly and cooked at high temperatures to effectively kill viruses and bacteria.

The most important thing is to give children insect medicine from an early age. From the ground up**.

Because I ate roundworm eggs. Unfortunately, it is often when children do not wash their hands that they are susceptible to roundworms. Ascariasis Ascariasis is a common intestinal parasitic disease, especially in children.

The main reason is that children often play on the ground, with dust containing roundworm eggs on their hands, without washing their hands, they take trillions of things to eat, or eat raw unwashed melons, fruits, and vegetables, which will bring roundworm eggs into the mouth and enter the gastrointestinal tract and get infected. Ascaris parasites in the intestine to ingest children's nutrients, affecting the growth and development of children, due to nutritional deficiency, sick children can be yellow, emaciated, anemia, and stunted. It can also cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as labor pain around the navel, nausea, vomiting, and sometimes worms coming out of the mouth.

Ascaris can produce a variety of toxins, which can cause mental symptoms in sick children, such as lack of energy, headache, dizziness, restless sleep, clenching of teeth, and irritability. As a heterogeneous protein, the insect body can cause allergic reactions, and urticaria, itching, and facial edema are common in children. When roundworms burrow into the appendix in large quantities, they can also roll into a ball in the intestine, causing intestinal obstruction and even intestinal perforation.

So ascariasis cannot be taken lightly. The main prevention of this disease is to cultivate good hygiene habits in children, so that they should wash their hands before meals and after using the toilet; Raw fruits and vegetables should be washed and disinfected. Stop children from playing games such as pinball on the ground, especially not eating food while playing with dirt.

**Available drugs, commonly used anthelmintic drugs are deworming, deworming net and traditional Chinese medicine to make junzi, betel nut, etc. Because all anthelmintic drugs have a certain toxicity, abuse will bring adverse reactions to children, so under the guidance of a doctor, take the medicine on time and in accordance with the amount, and do not buy medicine for children indiscriminately.
