Feels Like Worms Crawling Around In And On Her, Has BM, Sores All Over The Body. What Could This Be ?
My daughter has been feeling like she is going crazy. She keeps feeling like worms are crawling around in and on her. Now she had a BM and found many worms in her stool. She brought the worms to the hospital but they want a cleaner specimen. She has sores all over her body and she has no idea why she gets these. She also gets the hives often and nobody can tell her why! I am really worried about her and her family! what types of paracites could she have or what else could this be?

Hi, Thanks for visiting health care magic
worms in the stool and sores that is creeping eruptions in the skin are produced due to infection by nematods -round worms, infect the intestine , if they are not treated early that leads to eruptions in the skin feeling that some thing crawling under the skin.so get her stool examined for presence of worms and take worm controlling agents like albendazole once a week for 6 weeks and anti allergic medications like levocetrizine for controlling crawling sensation
