Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that your wife is having granuloma caused by tape worm.
This is called as cysticercosis.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.his requires treatment by the use of anti-helminthic drugs and this will respond to treatment no need to be worried.

Hope this information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
With regards
I find this answer helpful
