How to tell if a child has worms, how can a child have pinworms

Ascariasis is a common intestinal parasitic disease, especially in children. The main reason is that children often play on the ground, carry dust containing roundworm eggs on their hands, take things to eat without washing their hands, or eat raw unwashed melons, fruits and vegetables, which will bring roundworm eggs into the mouth and enter the gastrointestinal tract and become 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 xenoprotein can cause allergic reactions, such as 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 to eat.

As the name suggests, parasites are a kind of insects that parasitize the human body or animals and plants, and pinworms are a kind of parasites, often parasitic on the human body and pigs and other animals, absorbing nutrients and surviving. So, how can a child have pinworms?

1.In fact, the parasitic position of pinworms in the human body is generally in the cecum part and the small intestine part, and the parasite is alive in the human body. Pinworms at ** can lay eggs and reproduce offspring, but pinworms cannot be seen by the naked eye, and they need to be observed through a microscope.

2.Pinworms parasitize the body will also cause pinworm disease, and you can generally feel the itching in the ** part, but you can't see the presence of anything. Pinworms are usually found mainly in children, often due to unhygienic eating habits.

However, pinworm disease is not troublesome, and you can use traditional Chinese medicine to make the gentleman remove pinworms, basically a few days.

Therefore, children do not have a very clear awareness of hygiene, which requires parents to help children establish hygienic living habits, such as washing hands before eating, and cleaning them with special disinfectant if they are particularly dirty.

Answer: Generally, anorexia, pica, teeth grinding and other phenomena will occur, if necessary, you can do stool to check roundworm eggs, you can check several times, ** is to fight worms, you can eat worming drugs before going to bed at night, such as intestinal worms, to see how the effect is.

After roundworm eggs enter the human body, it takes about 60-75 days to hatch into adults.

The most accurate way is to take a little fresh stool from your child and send it to the hospital for testing. If there are roundworm eggs in the specimen, it means that the child has roundworms in his body. In daily life, mothers can make a preliminary judgment by observing the following details:

Loss of appetite: In the process of developing roundworm eggs into adult worms in the intestine of the child, the metabolites or decomposition products of the worm body will be absorbed into the bloodstream by the body, so the human body will have a series of symptoms, such as: poor appetite, nausea, vomiting and so on.

Stomach pain: Generally speaking, most of the abdominal pain caused by roundworms is not serious, and it is often a paroxysmal dull pain, which is reversed and the duration is indefinite.

Other symptoms: children with roundworms are prone to diarrhea or dry stools, resulting in constipation; ** Frequent recurrence of "wind bumps" for no apparent reason; Some children may have picky eating or "pica".

If it is confirmed that your baby has roundworms, your child may be dewormed under the guidance of a doctor.

The doctor reminded that there are two conditions that cannot be confirmed as "ascariasis". First, not all children with "insect spots" have roundworms.

The so-called "insect spots" refer to the children's face and neck** often have pale white almost round or oval patches, with fine gray-white scales and mild itching. This spot is only an indication that your child may be infected with ascariasis. Because sometimes doctors do not find roundworm eggs when testing the stool of children with "insect spots", the so-called "insect spots" are not entirely correct to say that there are "roundworms", and "insect spots" are actually just a ** disease.

The second is that the presence of roundworms cannot be determined just by the child's teeth grinding at night. Although the toxins secreted by roundworms can indeed induce children to grind their teeth at night, other factors such as nervousness, calcium deficiency, and dental disease may also cause night grinding, so this method of diagnosis is also unreliable.

Keeping children away from roundworms and developing good hygiene habits is the key to preventing roundworms. Because the eggs often enter the child's body through contaminated food, contaminated hands, and contaminated water. Therefore, it is important to train your children to develop good personal hygiene habits

Wash your hands before and after eating, use chopsticks and spoons when eating, don't eat directly with your hands, and get rid of the habit of sucking your fingers. Don't drink raw water and don't eat raw vegetables. Eat melons and fruits to wash and blanch or simply peel them.
