White seed in stool

2017-12-24 20:31:19
Hi I have gone to a tour to araku valley where their I have played in a pond and unfortunately some water has entered in to my mouth and I swallowed it. But now after one week I feel like I am little ill and today I have observed white seed in my stool. I think I got infected by it I have Google and found that it is parasite infection caused by giardiasis. I am little worried is it going to be any serious health issue?? Right now I do not have any other severe symptoms.need help from you and suggest me if any medications  needed.
