What Are The Symptoms Of Parasite?
My 23 month old son has had loose/diarrhea stools today. The last stool a couple hours ago looked like he had a bunch of strings in it. I was concerned that they might be parasites. He now has a fever of 100 degrees. Could that be a symptom of a parasite?

Hello,
Parasites not diagnosed on symptoms. Stool examination is sufficient mostly. Deworming can be done after confirmation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
