Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach has a dull ache, and sometimes I experience heartburn and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it was fine for a while, but then it started again. Can adults get ascariasis?Doctor's answer:
Helminthiasis is a disease that can affect people of all ages. It has a significant relationship with dietary hygiene. For example, in the past, when living conditions were poor, more people suffered from this disease. However, as living conditions have improved, fewer people are getting helminthiasis. It is still widespread in the bodies of some animals, so it is recommended that you pay close attention to your dietary hygiene.
