What the hell is this? Where are you people hanging out that there's worms?!

Stop playing in puddles, and open fields and eating random bus tickets off the floor!

I remember as a kid taking deworming tablets. Don't think I've ever taken it as an adult. I don't have pets but spend a good amount of time outdoors in parks & forest. Wondering if I need to deworm and whether other people do it?

Did your parents ever allowed you to pay outside in the dirt?

No? I mean I played outside but was always told not to play in places with germs and things and to wash my hands properly when i came in - like any normal child.

Other than mild existential fatigue no, but I'm at the forest quite a bit and also at the park some days doing mobility stuff on the grass. Both places have quite a lot of dogs, but especially the park where I'll do some ground mobility.

Intestinal Worms: Symptoms, Treatment, Causes, Recovery, and More

Intestinal worms may clear up on their own, but you should see a doctor if you experience noticeable symptoms.

What are the symptoms of intestinal worms?​


Once you contract it, the parasite travels into your intestines. There, it reproduces and grows. Once it reproduces and becomes larger in amount and size, symptoms may appear.

Common symptoms of intestinal worms are:
  • abdominal pain
  • diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting
  • gas and bloating
  • fatigue
  • unexplained weight loss
  • abdominal pain or tenderness
A person with intestinal worms may also experience dysentery. Dysentery occurs when an intestinal infection causes diarrhea with blood and mucus in the stool. Intestinal worms can also cause a rash or itching around the rectum or vulva. Sometimes, a worm is passed in the stool during a bowel movement.

Some people may have intestinal worms for years without experiencing any symptoms.

Lethargy is a big one. Also, the bit I put in bold, some people misdiagnose themselves as having hemmoiroids in that location when it is actually due to intestinal worms. Then there is the obvious one, you may pass some through your stool :sick:

You do get hydrocortisone cream, among others, that you can apply to that area on the skin.
 
Kids yes, but if a worm survives hard liquor and beers then i really don't know.
