Ascariasis: how to prevent and treat it
Ascariasis is a common intestinal parasitic disease, especially in children. If not treated in time, it may affect children's appetite and intestinal digestion and absorption function, thus affecting growth and development. This paper will introduce the prevention and treatment methods of ascaris lumbricoides to help parents better protect their children's health.

Good hygiene habits

In order to prevent the occurrence of ascariasis, we need to educate children to develop good hygiene habits, such as washing hands before and after meals, not sucking fingers, not eating unwashed fruits and vegetables, and not drinking raw water. At the same time, it is also important to trim your nails regularly, because there are often ascaris eggs hidden under your nails.

Timely medical treatment

If your child has symptoms of ascaris, or you suspect that your child has been infected with ascaris, it is recommended that you seek medical advice in time and take insect repellent according to the doctor's advice. The key to prevent and control ascariasis lies in early detection and active treatment.
