Ascariasis
From the past 2 3 years I have a problem of worms in my stool. After taking medicine from chemist the problem solved but after a month or 2 the problem start again. Last time I had ultrasound of my stomach and liver but nothing appeared and everything seems normal. After 4months again I've worm in my stool and this it was 1 foot long. I don't know what diagnose and medication I should take.
This is a common problem and you do not need to worry. Start on the following medications. Tab. Metron 400 1 tab daily 3 times a day for 5 days and tab Secnil 500mg 1 tab stat (single dose)
For one week avoid any kind of sweet stuff like a pastry chocolate etc drink lots of water and if possible use olive oil as the cooking medium.
Next Steps
if problem still persists consult a gastroenterologist. endoscopy might be required.
