How is pediatric ascariasis treated?

Patient's question:

I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach aches sometimes with symptoms of burning and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it was cured for a while, but then it came back again. How is pediatric ascariasis treated?

Doctor's answer:

Children have roundworms in their stomachs, the weakest manifestation of which is severe pain around the navel. In severe cases, nausea, vomiting, and constipation may recur. A small number of children may also experience facial roundworm spots. When children experience the above symptoms again, it is recommended to conduct a roundworm test for the child. If roundworm eggs are found in the child's stool, it indicates that there are worms in the intestines. It is recommended to give the child Intestinal Clean to treat the condition.
