This kind of worm is similar to lumbricoides, so it is called Ascaris for short and is one of the most common parasites in human body. Adults are generally parasitic in the small intestine and can cause ascariasis. People often say that ascaris lumbricoides is actually caused by ascaris lumbricoides parasitic in human small intestine. The incidence of this disease is relatively high in children, especially for preschool children, and their infection rate will be higher. So what should parents rely on to judge that their baby needs deworming?

1, the baby often has unexplained diarrhea, constipation or abdominal pain (mostly around the navel).

2, the appetite is not good, but I often want to eat sweet snacks, or I have a good appetite, but my body is very thin.

3, sometimes there will be headaches, excitement and poor spirits, inattention, slow response and so on.

4. I often drool or grind my teeth when I sleep at night.

5. There will be "insect spots" in children, and there are generally five kinds: these insect spots can appear alone or in succession.

(1) erythema appears on the tongue surface. This erythema is characterized by neat and round edges, often protruding from the tongue surface, and the location of erythema is uncertain and the number is different.

(2) Particles appeared in the mucous membrane of the lower lip, mostly small papules the size of gray needles, with different numbers.

(3) Blue spots appear on the sclera, which are triangular, round or half-moon.

(4) White spots appear on the face, mostly round, with neat edges and pale white in the middle.

(5) Flocculent white clouds appear on the nails.

6. I like to pick my nose.

7. Children's skin often appears "wind bumps" (urticaria) repeatedly for no reason.

8. Insects compete with children for nutrition in the intestines, which will also affect the growth and development of children.

9. When the larvae migrate, the baby will also have cough, chest pain, asthma, dyspnea, elevated body temperature, itchy skin, and eosinophilia in the blood.

10, adults in the intestine can cause parasitic intestinal obstruction, appendicitis, peritonitis and other diseases.

When can the baby fight insects?

Generally speaking, it is recommended to consider insect killing when the child is over 2 years old. Because for babies under 2 years old, their body and liver development is still not complete, and the insect repellent components of most insecticides will affect the liver function of the human body.

Generally speaking, children under 2 years old are active under the care of their parents, and the chances of being infected with eggs are relatively low, so there is no need to deworm. However, if you have to deworm, mothers must regularly deworm your baby after the child can deworm.
